King Springs

[Sam McLeod]

Has anyone fitted King Springs to the front of their D40? Does it improve the ride? Or is there something better?
It only does highways and beach work.

I had them but it didnt take long before mine sagged and it was back to standard hieght, Steel bar/bash plates/winch were just too heavy. Prior to that the ride was great. I had the heaviest spring that they made.

fitted midrange ironman springs and lovell shocks(zordo's kit) 2 months ago, rougher ride but the handling is so much better, and it's more than 2" higher. no bull bar tho

i've had the heavy duty king springs in for over 3 years and hasn't sagged with arb bar and bash plates (no winch yet). the ride is pretty stiff and i'veactually thought of changing them to something a bit softer.

I've been tossing up between the king springs all round, or king spring front and sax rear, or sax suspension all round.

From what I've read, the sax stuff may be bet better, but my brother works at Bursons and can get me king springs, shocks, struts for $900, vs the $2400 I was quoted for the Sax stuff.

Has anyone else had any experience comparing the two brands?

Cheers,
