by **rick** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 8:32 am

by **rick** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 9:00 am

whats the verdict tritonas :roll:

by **Eelesy** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 9:50 am

All in all pretty happy, im a bit annoyed as they charged more than they said to install as it took them longer than expected cos mine was the first ML they have done.

Did yours get a shudder up on take off? mine isnt too violent, but is definetly there

by **ML-VR08** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 9:58 am

Hmmm i dont like the sound of this shudder business!

:x

Ive got the three degree castor wedges with my dobi's kit but the shudder is still there.. quiet a bit !! Have to look into another way of eliminating it...

by **rick** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 1:11 pm

no shudder with the mk2 rear leafs but a very mild say 3 seconds of shudder with the 6 leaf rears i had installed after. how much was the final bill, i paid 1152 i think at the clarkson branch.

by **fireball** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 4:55 pm

what ironman kit did u put on tritonasaurus ?
with the constant load springs up front, comfort shocks at rear with performance springs... i dont get any shudder

by **ML-VR08** on Wed Apr 23, 2008 9:55 pm

Im going to get performace kit, but i dont want the shudder! i got quoted $1200...but im going to talk them down to $1100 cash!

by **Eelesy** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 1:00 am

im pretty sure it was the constant load kit all round, its got the 6 leafs in the back, the back has come up heaps

by **ML-VR08** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 1:35 am

pics?

by **Eelesy** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 5:42 am

This is the constant load kit, as you can see the back has come up heaps. i know the tiny wheels look funny now, but thats next on the list.

and no, the oil stain is not mine, that belongs to the POS ford that parks in the driveway when im not home

by **ML-VR08** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 6:29 am

haha good old fords, atleast their good from something...(dropping oil) 8-)

by **rick** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 8:00 am

deffo need the tyres mate :oops:

by **fireball** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 8:29 am

omg the rear is much higher than my kit

by **GLX-RSilver** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 11:40 am

Heres some info on ironman suspension kits i was going to pick mind up to with constant front coils and performance rear leafs but was told by supplier that ironman is having issues with the ML kits and have returns there remaining stock and could be up to a month before they fix the problem. Which shits me as my kit was only going to cost $750 Arwell i'm going 2inch dobinson now except it cost $1260. Cheers

by **Eelesy** on Thu Apr 24, 2008 12:42 pm

Yea tell me about it.

i just got my constant load kit installed and called ironman to ask about the shudder. they said they have only just become aware of it. no problems with autos, only manuals. because of the two piece tail shaft.

anyway, the bloke at ironman told me to go back to tyrepower and they will send out smaller rear leafs and they will take the big ones back untill they can find a solution to the problem and send em back out again.

and they said they will be paying for all the re fitting cost in between.

where were you gonna get it for $750? as far as i know, the constant load kit is sold for $1052?

by **rick** on Fri Apr 25, 2008 1:53 am

leave it alone mate,mine has vertualy sorted its self out now 8-)

by **Eelesy** on Fri Apr 25, 2008 6:53 am

Im gettin 5 Cooper STs on tuesday from clarkson, so ill see how the shudder goes after they fit them.

by **rick** on Fri Apr 25, 2008 6:55 am

by **Eelesy** on Fri Apr 25, 2008 7:01 am

yea i will, seem like good blokes up there, i got 4 new STs and one for a spare thats done 1000ks for a decent price.

by **ML-VR08** on Fri Apr 25, 2008 7:30 am

by **GLX-RSilver** on Fri Apr 25, 2008 8:01 am
