Another Suspension Thread...

[freddydt]

I know, I know. You probably don't want to see another one. Please bear with me. I keep going back and forth, so I want some input from you fine Woodgrain Warriors.

My GX is my daily driver like most of yours. I would like to fit 33"s on it. I won't be doing much extreme wheeling in it. Currently, I'm working on a dirt/backroads route around Alabama so that'll be a good bit of my terrain. I know I'll have a RTT in the future and really want the SSS rear bumper. Also, @THeGeNTLeMaN and I are going to put together a hidden winch mount up front so that'll be there. That's the major stuff I'd like to do to take in account with suspension. I've leaned towards OME using medium springs up front and heavy in the rear to accommodate the weight of a tent, gear, and bumper.

What are your suggestions?

And when I say @THeGeNTLeMaN and I, I really just mean him. Ha. I'm just supplying the vehicle, but I'll help where I can.

im running 600lb springs and so is @123ROBERTELEE (he could probly give you more insight than I can)... its not much different now then it was without the bumpers but you can always install air bags in the rear springs for heavy loads like im doing

Gentleman is right.

Im running Toytec's Superflex HD's with their boss shocks in the rear and they are awesome! A little stiff but when loaded up they ride perfect! Looking to eventually to swap my rear shocks with Icons...

I have a nice ride in mine with Iron Man 4x4 heavies and Icon 2.0s.

I will be having a lift sale once I save up for the long travel conversion (not any time soon)

I posted on my build thread but not here. I went with Total Chaos tubular uniball upper control arms, 2.0" Radflo Front Coil-Overs, 2.0" Radflo Rear Shocks with Internal Floating Piston, 2" Lift Radflo Rear Coil Springs. Also comes with the air bag conversion kit. @SouthernSS had a Black Friday sale I couldn't pass up. If it arrives before the weekend I'll have it installed while in BR. If not, I'll be making another trip over.
