Hi guys,
I have had Koni shocks and Lovells springs fitted now for 10 000 km. I had HD put in the front and medium in the back. Can anyone provide some sort of description of how their vehicle rides with a similar set-up? Mine is ROUGH. If anyone has used the hook point access road on Fraser recently they will know how bad the corrugations are. It was almost unbearable to drive on at 20 kmh. Further, on the highway after an hour on the New England and Cunningham hwys, I'm feeling every jarring depression and bump in the road. I'm running tyre pressures of around 35 psi warm because any higher and it's unbearable even more so. I was expecting much better from this combo and was aware that the hd in the front would be firm, but they shouldnt be like concrete.
On a side note, the bloody things are squeaking like some small marsupial is caught in the springs. Has anyone else had this and how did you fix it?
Any suggestions or help would be great. At this stage I'm looking at going back to standard springs because I'm sick of it being shit. If you read my build up you'll get what I mean!
