suspension lifts for WK2

[GCDingo]

Hope I'm not wondering from the thread too far but will the Quadralift air suspension handle a uneek bar and bash plate with a winch maybe later on?

No worries..Have 3 mates with QuadraLift with ARB bars and winches..Works a treat..The QuadraLift automatically compensates for the extra weight when it levels..same as with load on the tow hitch...Good system if you trust air suspension long term...Has that annoying habit of lowering at predetermined speeds when you really need the constant height like between sand dunes crossing the Simpson..And also when towing heavy caravans if you're into that...puts a lot of strain on the rear airbags and reduces the service life so I've been told...but then most of us only keep our Jeeps for the warranty period...Well I do for the past 20 years.

I won't be doing any towing. I would have thought in offroad mode the system would be at maximum height? Might be looking at the LLAM system any how so might solve this issue?

I would have thought the bump stops would be a concern regardless of if you go for 40mm or 65mm, if it's a concern, it's valid either way?

Are these the coil spacers that you are referring to?

They both offer the same lift, all good here as far as I can tell.

Not sure if the Disco style LLAM for the WK2 has finished development and ready for sale but if it is then that's the way to go..Mates had trouble with the automatic lowering of off-road heights with the QuadraLift when crossing the last Simpson trip..Pain in the butt when you need some speed between dunes...They eventually opted for normal height and sand mode..Did the desert scraping a few times...would have been easier with some more clearance though...LLAM would allow you to lock in heights to suit

Just had a response from Graeme at LLAM and he is just ironing out a few bugs but is almost ready sale so sounds promising.
