Hi Im in New Zealand and can't get answers over here to the following questions. Any help appreciated.
I have a SWB GQ and have given it a tuff dog 5' spring lift front and 4' lift at the rear. I also have 50 mm of body lift, and a 3 degree castor correction bush at professionally installed in the front. The vehicle has been certified by a specialist engineer due to all the modifications. Currently the truck is all over the road like a mad woman knitting! I have been told (rightly or otherwise) that I should leave it as is so to prevent diff slap (??). Any thoughts on this?
I am considering castor correction plates to further get the diff rotaion more back to normal. Is this the best option? I could drop the front control arms but here in NZ they would get mashed in our terrain...wood, debris etc in teh muddy tracks.
I have also installed a Bully-dog LPG kit to the diesel engine. It has a TO3 ball bearing turbo, intercooled 4.2 ... with a few other extras of course. I have read in the mag not to have too higher LPG mix to the diesel. How can I test the mix ratio?
