Hi!

suspension when traveling outback but cause pain in my back in the city especially in Budapest town of pothole. Sometimes medicin necessarry. May i change softer dumping or/and spring or fell the air off from tyres?
Thanks in advance

If it was me, I'd be inclined to go to a
suspension specialist to get your dumpers and springs professionally diagnosed. But DO NOT fell too much air from the tyres. You could find them coming off the rims.

There's always adjustable shockers from rancho and tough dog. approx $400/pair.
Haven't tried any of them but being adjustable they should give you best of both worlds.................

How much air pressure do you have in the tyres?
If it is over about 30psi it may be too much around town (and on dirt roads!)

Phil, i agree. Because my lower back is dicky, I've experimented with tyre pressures & I can tell you that 4 psi lower pressure can make the difference between a harsh ride & a plush ride. I now personally run with about the lowest pressure I can-28 psi.

If the only problem the
suspension is causing you is a pain in the back why not consider a
suspension seat?
