Default Rovertym/OME modification

Just started my mods on the suspension. Needed new shocks and tie rods, so decided it was time to start making my '95 more off-road friendly.

Put in a Rovertym stainless steel drag link and tie rod assembly, as well as relocating the steering damper to the front of the diff. It gets the damper up higher and out of the way. You are supposed to be able to use it as a jacking point.

Also put in new Old Man Emu extended travel shocks and the Heavy duty springs with a 2" lift on the front and back. Next step is an ARB bumper with winch.

Ride is a little stiff, but handling is really nice and tight.

Default RE: Rovertym/OME modification

sweet deal. im still pondering if i should do my suspension before or after i go to school. but when i do, i think im going to go with mostly RTE stuff, and if i should go 2" or 3" (or if after school if i should go for the RTE 5", though i doubt it)

anyway, let me know how it tackles the trails afterwards.
