Was looking at my front end as I would like a leveling kit. The reason is these springs are too light and just flat out with the weight of the diesel engine.

Look at the pics these springs leafs are flat. i dont think longer shackle is the solution but new stronger springs & better shocks to make it a better ride.

As much as I love my Roxors I do miss the ride of my General.

As anyone tried the OTR springs & shock kit? There is McVeigh on ebay selling heavier springs on ebay is anyone tried them?

I am really happy with my on the Rox front springs. Easy install and nice to have the longer brake lines too.

You can see the difference of the front suspension on the red vs with my 2 other Roxer’s, I guess the steel hard cab is putting a lot of weight on the front end.

I think is has improved the ride. My stock springs were almost bending backwards with the shackle lift. The OTR springs are about the same thickness as the rear springs

OTR spring kit really lift up the front and improved the ride. I recommend them.
