I fitted the Offroad Armoury bracket to an existing ProComp ES2000 shock I had. The kit is a little pricey (£38 I think or about £90 if you want a damper too) but bloody hell it's one solid piece of kit, no chance of the bracket getting damaged as quite a few are flimsy and bend after a short while off roading.
now running on general grabber AT2's, 205 75 15's on offset steel rims, unless its because i haven't got used to it yet, compared with the standard Bridgestones the steering feels a bit vague ?
I think there maybe something not quite right here ... :dry:
I switched from Bridgestones to grabbers with 32mm spacers, which is basically the same as yours' with offsets on and the "feel" of the steering was transformed .... for the better, it was instantly more feel, more grip and more smiles. .................. what tyre pressures are you using, jack up each wheel and rock it at 12.00/6.00 and 9.00/3.00 o'clock and note what happens, how much tread have the tyres got etc ........ something's wrong :huh:
Hi Halford
I don't think there's anything wrong, only had them on a couple of day's and not got used to the difference, Perhaps ' vague ' was the wrong word, The tread depth is plenty, in fact they're almost new, I'm running them at 30 psi , not sure if this is correct ? got a very slight wheel wobble between 35 and 40, but I'm assuming this is a balancing issue as there was no wobble what so ever with the original Bridgestones on, The ride is a lot better though, I'm planning a few mod's, a mild lift, trimmed bumpers etc, and have read some good things about the virtue's of fitting a steering damper, will post some pics in due course,
