Hey guys,
Just after some opinions/advice. I have a 2016 4x4 Sr dual cab with a jack off canopy on the back. I am looking to upgrade the suspension as the canopy is quite heavy loaded up with all my tools. 550kg to be exact. Spoke with a few of the local suspension guys who suggest 500kg (or there about) rear springs. The problem with this is when I jack the canopy off for going up the beach it will be sitting high in the rear. Another suggestion is lighter springs (300kg) with air bags. Another again is to fix canopy on for good and go heavy springs.
So I see my 2 options as:
1: 300kg springs with air bags for work, deflate airbags and remove canopy for play
2: 500kg springs with canopy fixed permanently.
Bearing in mind when we go away we also to a camper trailer which all up weighs around a tonne, but weight will be reduced in the canopy.
I hope this all makes sense and my apologies if this has been covered in a different thread, I did search and not find anything. This is my first post as well so feel free to correct me if I have gone about this the wrong way.
Thanks guys
Andy.
