I’ve got a set Dever HD3’s I had bought for my Raptor I knew they were super stiff , but I tow with my truck , but when we put them on even after broke them in they are still super stiff so, I’m going give this a shot… I haven’t been off road since I put them because stiffness the rear. Great video. Thanks

happy Friday.

i just put extended shackles on my gu . the intial spring rate seems lighter , it rides way better . im still going to remove some leaves though as 300kg is the most it ever sees . im making high clearance spring hangers while im in there. Something to consider taking that second load leaf out gives the whole stack more leverage over the bottom load leaf . That will improve initial feel more than just fact a leaf is gone . . Perfect choice in my view and thats a thought process we apply to shim stacks in shocks which are essentially round leaf springs

Cheers mate. 🤙🏻 yeah it did improve it for sure.

Greasing between the leaves helps a heap as well

Yeah I agrre with this bloke here, I pulled apart the leaves in my Hilux I had years ago and put tonnes of grease on all the leaves, it made it ride so much smoother and travelled way better. Well worth doing...👍

Hey there, Very interested as to how the spring removal job worked out for you I have a HJ47 and ordered the same springs early on and once fitted realised there was no give in them, they"re crazy stiff, way to hard for a weekend cruise around, I think I'll remove a couple of leaf's in the rear and maybe one in the front as well. Thanks in advance Maca

Cheers mate, yes it is better and if your not going to carry heaps of weight, it is worth the effort. Still a fairly rough ride though. 40 series life mate. 😂🤙🏻

What rear shocks are you running 😊?

were they 500kg? what rating were your aiming for, 300kg?

Pretty sure they were constant 300, no idea what I’ve ended up at really.

hello mate , could we have a talk , hope to sponsor

Lots of rubbish about front seats and No explanation on how to actually remove the springs just fast forwarded footage with music playing.. This is what separates rookies from actual quality videos like Chris fix

😂 thanks for taking the time to comment, and yes I’m a rookie. Are you a pro at everything when you decide to step out of your comfort zone, or are you a full time keyboard warrior because you seem to have nailed that. You and your comments are what is wrong with the world, so fast to critique, but to lazy to have a crack yourself. Hopefully we meet one day and you can tell me to my face how shit my video was. My bet is you would never do it in person. Good luck getting off the lounge.

The point of the video was softening the ride height by removing leafs. Wasn't intended to be comprehensive tutorial for dummies.
