Suspension Upgrade 76 Series

What was the cost for the ARB upgrade Norm?

Thanks. Mick

You are testing me there Mick. I think it was about $2,000, perhaps $2,200 (including certification - Govt fees). I'll check if I have the receipt, but since we are living full time in the van, I might not have it with me.

We have 79 series set up same as Norm ie 3700 GVM ARB fitted springs and shocks and certified to ADR's, cost in Darwin in 2005 was about $2400 if I recall and I highly recommend the Darwin ARB as opposed to some in Eastern states and SA who are retailers only in majority of cases but some have workshops and relevant knowledge. This is not criticism of ARB per se but retail sells and we often want the expertise that goes with the sale.

Recently fitted firestone airbags to rear ($1100 fitted) about 16psi works well for us with caravan on.

Changed tyres to BFG ATs before I picked up the vehicle.

Same size BFG's?

Mat, the tyres are LT 265/75/16. Slightly bigger than standard. Selected in part, due to load rating.

I thought you might ask that, but delayed going out to double check on the tyres. I'm at Arthur River, North West Tas at the moment, near a spot known as 'The Edge of the World'. It is cold and windy outside and we are pretty cosy inside the van.

But for you...........

Thanks for that Norm.

Spent 4 years in Tassie so know what you are talking about!! (The West Coast is amazing though)
34 deg where am at the moment....

I guess the same question, did you upsize the tyres at the same time?

Sorry no I wanted to keep the gearing the same.

Thanks Phil,

Looks like I'll go down that road then.

Mat.
