Hopefully you'll find something useful in there.

There are photos of the "Maddison Off Road" on the Jimboomba site which I just had a look at.
My comment after looking at their photos is that there are no shock absorbers shown, which I would think are necessary.

I could not see the spring pick up points but a major problem with semi elliptic springs on the Cape Roads anyway is the tearing away of spring mounts. I would satisfy myself that he connections of the springs to the chassis are more than adequate.

It comes with a ball coupling which could be a problem if you wanted to go on the OTT at any creek crossing. A Treg is pretty necessary for that but for most other places a ball is probably OK, but can be expensive if over angled.

The axle looks light but I am not an expert on this as I have independent suspension.

If you choose one , I would add shock absorbers, and always carry a spare main leaf , u bolts and centre pin for the springs. You should very regularly check the U bolts and centre bolt when travelling. I have seen a main leaf break going in to Palm Valley and it isn't pretty.

We have an Explorer with extras and I brought it because it was the best value soft floor c/t for the dollars I wanted to spend $30K.
They are extremely well built and I would take it any where the Isuzu MU can tow it and it is a very capable 4WD. Ours has the Cruiser Master independent air suspension with the DO 35 hitch.
