Any advice would be welcome. I have an HJ 60 Landcruiser (diesel) with a very saggy tail - leaf springs all around in fact are pretty well flat. Have spoken to both ARB and Opposite lock, as well as other non-4wd suspension suppliers in town here. Seems that re-setting the leaves is not a long term option as they sag again fairly quickly. Comparison between the OME (ARB) system and the Opposite lock systems would be invaluable. I read on this forum some episodes of the OME nitro shocks failing.
I should say at this point that while I'm not a serious 4wd-er, I do like to get off the road. I have a young family, we like to access camp spots, we tow a light trailer, and the vehicle is at times fairly loaded. I live out of town (Tamworth) on acres - carry feed for stock, use the vehicle a bit in the paddocks etc. Having said this, most of the time it's just me in the vehicle to and fro to work!
Looking at the OME light - medium leaves with nitro shocks versus the OL Business medium pack with their tough dog shocks. OL can do me a price that is some $500 cheaper so this is where I am leaning at this stage. Any comments greatly appreciated. Thanks.
