There was a company called Gone2Far suspension for Series Landys that had a dislocating leaf spring set up. sadly they went skint.

Yeah spoke them back in the day. CPC (Chris Perfect) bought the rights I believe, however I think they've since gone too.

Gon2Far used revolver shackles. Good for pictures and RTI ramp Queens, although I don't think that many guys run them off road.

Not only is the soa better for most offroading- bar perhaps side angles but they also look awesome!!! A real head turner I think some- not all- people who slate them are jealous.

I'm taking mine to devon4x4 for the job as reading up its a fine thing toget steering and prop angles right. Plus I have te money but not the time

Bring on the superior wading, flex and bigger humps

I remember a thread on here a few years ago where the OP had converted a series to spring over axle. He admitted the result was terrible. I think it was an otherwise standard series so had the standard narrow wheel base. Jacking it up with SOA made it feel very unstable.

Some good comments in this thread:

Couldn't do it on mine - it's a tax exempt and I don't want it Q plated. I suspect this much modification would tip it over into the delicate hands of the SVA....
