Description

It’s the moment of truth after redoing the rear suspension for the second time. After spending plenty of time and money trying to make the stock leaf springs work, we gave up and took it all out. That’s OK as we’re more than pleased with the result. No rattles and no shakes, but the ride is way too stiff and a tire is still scuffing the inner wheelwell when turning into uphill driveways.
