Parabolics (again)

[Radish150]

Anyone got a set of these on thier 70 series swb??? I´m thinking of trying a set of the rocky mountain units.... they just have to be smoother than a leaf pack.

where are you ordering from?

In the past, the parabolics were not holding up at all well in Land Cruisers and my understanding was that the guys that were making them stopped, and went back to the drawing board.

With the right shocks, the OME (and there others) leafs ride quite well. With un-matched shocks, the springs may end up feeling harsh or have too much oscillation frequency giving a bumpy feeling ride.

Rocky Mountain doesn't provide parabolics for landcruisers anymore. Just received an email about it from RM.
I have parabolics and was very happy with them. Bought them from HST Parabolic suspension, almost 6 years ago.
However some time ago I damaged one of the springs during an accident.
Tried to buy a new set from HST but he no longer carrys them after he had an argument with the manufacturer which build them. The springs were designed by HST and manufactured by Weweler Springs in Belgium so I cannot get them from someone else because HST is the owner of the design.

So if you find a source....I would be happy to know one....
