    Am I being stupid over twin shock mounts?

    I have had the same problem with front and rear shocks and now changing to twin front and rear. Don’t do competition, but the weight carried Overlanding knocks the stuffing out of them especially in the deserts with all the heat. We have also not long returned from Africa and found you...

    110 to 130.

    I am looking to extend my 110 to a 130, does anyone know 1, if the chassis are the same thickness? 2, if the 130 suspension is fitted can you uprate the gross weight? 3, any company who could do the work. Thanks Bob
