With SPOA do you need to do anything other than the welding & brake lines?twiss wrote:If you want mega-flex spoa and single leaf springs work really well.
My mate had that combination on that SJ that joined here a while ago. The one that was blue and is now black...
Got super flex out of it! We could flex the truck by hand, to the point of tipping it over lol

Re: Calmini Shackle Reverse
My add a leaf was really really hard, but I've bashed it around enough to soften it up now
The added leafs will now pretty much bend to being flat.

Re: Calmini Shackle Reverse
Great find I'm trying to keep things as cheap a possible though. The guy I bought the SJ off is a mechanic so I might see if he can do the leaf over axel. Failing that a freind of mine is coming over from the USA might see if he can bring me the Calmini kit. Or there is always the shackle son fleabay for £25.ScottieJ wrote:There is a full calmini 5" lift it in the difflock classifieds for £400 http://forum.difflock.com/ads_item.php?id=14228" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
