Wow, happy birthday Dunc!

Greasable shackles... thought you only used those on stag parties.

from where - what is it - why is it better?

Shouldnt this be under D40 tech?

 

[Dunc]

OME (Old Man Emu) kit is very good quality from Australia. I've had a couple of sets of coils and they don't sag with age (unlike some of the **** around).

Front lifts by about 50mm, back (unloaded) a bit more so should balance the wagon with the BFG's back up

Didn't put it in Tech because it isn't yet - Will be once I start installing it though :shock:

Keep us Informed Dunc

Nice one Dunc

Can't wait for the before and afters.

Have you considered a steering damper? Can one be fitted onto the D40?

On ya Dunc!

You will probably find you will need to get longer rear brake hose's, I extended mine by 3".

When you put the rear suspension on, jack up the body on one side to get maximum flex, and see if the hoses are stretching.

You may have to unhook the ABS cable at the bottom bracket to.

The front should be sweat, just make sure you drive it a couple of 100 miles to get everything settled and then get the wheel alignment.

Other than that it should be sweat...take it out and take some pics.

Cheers for the tips Navara-au, I'd forgotten the brake hoses! I'll may as well get longer stainless/braided hoses to fit while I've got the thing in bits anyway.

:?: Dunc, how much is it entire kit?

 

[Jayk]

Dunc sounds great supplier details would be good and cannot wait to see the results :lol:

 

[NNMan]

Hows it getting on Dunc???

When I can I'm lifting my D22, My new bigger tyers are rubbing when suspension is compressed!

Quick Update: Kit all arrived last week, including bushes, greasable shackles etc. Currently lying on the floor in the workshop as I'm busy with house and work stuff.

I checked out Frogs Island and TBR and indeed, TBR turned out to offer very good advice and help, plus had the best deal..
