Sorry if this is a newbie question but I’m just not familiar with the in’s and out’s of what is going on as I just recently purchased this vehicle in hopes up fixing it up as a daily commuter/ weekend warrior rig.
I bought the vehicle from a broker so no real history other than what I’ve pulled off the carfax and just doesn’t help me here. The previous owner took the AHC system off and replaced it with what I was told was the LC suspension. The issue is that it’s really soft through the corners... like Cadillac kind of soft so much so that if I take a windy road it really rolls and feels a bit unstable through the corners. Today I drove my buddies LC today with stock suspension and confirmed that mine rides way softer than his which leads me to believe mine was replaced with a cheaper version suspension kit or at least a softer ride maybe by the previous owners request. The current rear springs say “Arnott 14-4355” on them and believe it or not I can’t find any info online for this setup so I’m reaching out here.
With all that I definitely want a firm suspension, not rough firm but at least equal to the stock LC suspension would be nice. As a consideration I have a drawer system in back which adds about 100 lbs but I did also take the 3rd row seats out. I’mposting some pics to see if anyone can identify what is actually under there and what kit I need to replace this with or maybe I just simply need new springs or something.
Any thoughts or ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
