buying a pick-up, whats the real price

[Hero]

[notEworthy27]

hindi ba delikado yung pagreverse ng springs? hmmm...parang nakakatakot gwin yun..

[ARB]

reversed the springs on my pick-up mga five years ago ok pa naman until now. and you dont reverse all the spring leaves the overload spring only, this the one that gives pick-ups the harsh ride. btw i still carry loads with it up to half ton. but if you want smoothe ride and still carry a lot of load i have a friend who removes three sping leaves and left three long thin ones and added an inflatable rubber thing designed to handle loads parang sa mga ibang busses and it rides great parant coils and still can handle a lot of load.

You can try Wheelers Suspension Haus in the Banawe area. They quoted me around P400 per side and that where i plan to have mine done actually.

[notEworthy27]

great! which side of banaue?

i saw sa truck show sa mega..di ko masyado pinansin..yung may gadget i-attach ka sa leaf spring ano nga ba iyon..is it to better the ride at the same time can handle loads? or for towing loads?

[OTEP]

Wheelers is near Team R Specs. It is at the side of Banawe farther from E.Rod. This is the side near Santa Mesa Heights already.

Hero::: It is called Load Plus, Add-A-Load, etc. It actually adds more to the payload capacity not make the ride smoother. Some posters here in tsikot have used it and claimed harsher ride if not loaded.

[notEworthy27]

hanggan kelan ung truck show?

[Ungas]

Where have you been, notEworth27?

Tapos na last week pa. It was only a 4 day exhibit.

ungas,

ok thanks..

mayroon pa kayang ibang marunong mag reverse..
dapat ngayon kasi ako pupunta sa wheelers ..eh ginamit pala yung pickup!.. madali lang kaya gawin?
sana mayroon dito sa alabang or makati man lang..

[isketi]

Please pardon me for my ignorance. Yun po bang pagreverse ng leaf spring ay literal na pagbaligtad nung spring? TY. :confused:

[OTEP]

Reversing the overload spring means literally turning it over. The rest of the springs will still be in their usuall position except for the overload spring which will be flipped. The overload spring is usually just one leaf in the whole pack.

Fierari did his flip DIY style.
