Hi
Has anyone out there had any experience with these two types of
suspension systems?
Is one better than the other and for what reason?
Look forward to you reply.
Cheers

DW,can't answer on the ironman springs but the aussie springs i had fitted to my f250 just before going to the
Cape York earlie this yr.
They instantly lifted & levelled the truck.If you look at the pic below on the back it is carrying a Adventure camper,these come in at around 600kg dry with 60ltrs of
water in additoin to this was 130ltrs of diesel,90ltrs
water fridge was tightly packed pantry was chock a block full,2 tonne trolly jack,2.5 hp compessor,extra 100amp battery,spare tyre,porta pottie with 15ltrs
water,extra lpg 4.5 kg,clothes
water hose 3000i kipor gen set,& alot of incadentals, all up & to my surprise truck weghed 5.25 tonne.
The springs carried all this with ease & hardly noticed any sag. The camper is still on the truck & most of the extras are gone.
For the $800 it was money
well spent & the ride, when a little emptier is hardly any different to when they were not there.
Yes very happy with them to say the least.
Cheers,
Bob.

I've got the ironman springs and helpers on a colorado.
They're adjustable which is nice, and they do the job. Just got back from a desert run and they performed perfectly.
Looks like you can't go wrong either way.

Hi,
We fitted IronMan Load Plus to our 60 series Crusier in Sept this year - did it ourselves - Found them to be a great help with rear sag, levelled the ride
well. I posted a similar ? on here before we purchased and got quite a few replies. If u type Iroman Load Plus into search of
Forum Threads it should take u there.
Cheers

Hi all
Thank you all for your replies. I appreciate your replies very much.
I have had a good look at a neighbours Load Plus springs and they are impressive. However, I made my choice of Aussie Super Springs.
My reason for doing this is that the whole spring is engaged by the Aussie Super Springs whereas the Ironman Load Plus are supporting the rear only.
My main load is towing and weight on the back too. So I have decided for me it is the Aussie Super Springs.
Time will tell if I made the correct decision or not.
Cheers
