HI JAMES what weight have you had in it thanks jon

 

Not been on the wiegh bridge but eg one pallet of concrete blocks4" 72 in all i think plus 10 all in and 4 cement (one load) wood- green sweet chestnut stacked 1.2m (high sides) 2m long, twenty year old cord, and we tow a tracked timberwolf, nose heavey on the trailer and it does not sit down, it could be because its all a bit new? may be after a few years it will all start to sit down a bit, like we do as you get older. wood and blocks not on the same load by the way:thumbup: forgot to say i'v also put a predator stump grinder on the back but its only a ton so it don't really count, and you couldn't really tell it was on.

Any heavy duty spring upgrade should be fine, I've terrafirma light duty on my 90 with their shocks. Heavy duty would have meant that I had to extend my brake lines as they lift by more than 2" and I dont carry too much weight in the back. Could be wrong but I think the snatch has shorter HD springs judging by the ride hight with a heavy duty non standard chassis. To cope with a load of chip most HD springs should be ok as long as you dont go for Britpart, I've had a spring sag before along with other issues with their stuff.

 

HI WAZ i ring nene overland today they said they get them made and the spring will take loads of weight up to 5 tons on a 130 but there £250 a pair now looking terra firma spring do any one run them as I'm told there good and £120 a pair thanks all jon
