Leaf spring recommendations after bullbar (1 Viewer)

[CruisinKempy]

Hi team,

I'm looking to put a 65kg bullbar and 25kg winch on the front of my stock standard 1PZJ70. Wondering what people's recommendation is to sorting out any front end sag after doing such an install?

New standard leaf packs/ extra leaves... Anyone out there who knows more. I know the standard answer is to install the gear and adjust from there. But wanting to anticipate what sortof additional costs I may come up against.

Hopefully this makes sense.

Regards,
Kempt.

When you order new springs you select the springs for the estimated added weight, this is for the front and back.

I've had the HD bullbars off my 73 and 75 series over the years, it didn't seem to make much difference in height when it was removed or added. Although as Taco says you choose the springs to suit your expected load. I would order heavy duty suspension and remove a leaf if its too hard.
You could just get some fat girls to sit on the front and see what happens. Tell them its for a landcruiser and girls pic competition

I had custom leaf packs, broke them and replaced with OME heavy leaves, then added/swapped a couple of leaves for more height/load capacity. Works well now.
