the price of leaf spring na lifted is more expensive than that of coil spring. almost twice the price. for a set of 4 coil springs for patrol is 18k leaf spring rear only for pick-ups 20k+.

Kung sa Hammer ito, halos pareho lang iyan. I've driven almost every model in the AMC line up. Sa bigat ng kaha niyan, mapa-leaf or mapa-coil, magiging malambot din ang ride.

ARB,

Baka you were refering to OEM coil springs....ungas' coil spring upgrades are not that cheap if i'm not mistaken (tama ba ungas?!?).

Lifting OEM leafsprings is sometimes done by a taller sackles (cheap alternative) instead of the curved leafsprings that you might be refering to (which are branded kaya mahal). Wala ring OEM na lifted (curved) leafsprings that I know that exist here kasi.

meron ba kayong feedback sa binebenta sa transhow na "loadmaster" (not sure about the name) basta yung kinakabit sa leafspring para hindi matagtag and mas ok ang tindig pag loaded

Hybrid: It's LOADPLUS by Ironman. I have no feedback about this. But I would like to have one installed in my pick-up just for aesthetic purposes. Ganda kac tingnan sa ilalim. Ok ito pag mabigat palagi ang karga ng pick-up mo.
