Ha, there are two reactions I get to it, and it’s always fun to work out which school of thought they come from Laughing those who know, or those who just think it’s funny Wink Thumbs Up

I’m torn between the standard ones and the remote res dampers, doubt if ever need the remote res but I’d like to only buy things once if that makes sense!

In my opinion, the remotes are fine if you're doing comp safari or fast off road stuff, but a little overkill for road or laning, but hey...fill your boots.

I doubt 90% of the people who buy adjustable dampers ever truly 'dial them in' or even know what 'dialled in' would feel like Laughing

I went for the KISS method, as always.

My td5 is donating the anti roll bars Shocked

Yes I've had the Alive comfort springs on a couple of my 90's. I may even put some on the td5 eventually.

It'll be standard, as it'll see some lanes over the coming winter months.

Well it’s been a while….

Hope everyone had a good new year, and got some landy related Christmas presents ! It’s been so long since I posted I’m sure to forget loads of stuff I’ve done to the truck but If anyone’s interested I’ll try and remember and post some pictures !

In the meantime I’ve been busy building up some rear speakers and MUD speaker panels, along with the cargo nets for the MUD side panels Very Happy
