- All by myself and John for the rear!
Decided to go with Dobinson for the springs, struts and bushings. I looked into the OldmanEmu but just didn't fit my style. It felt more common. Which is totally fine. Heard great things about them and a lot of people like them. But this was a brand out of Auzzie Land. And I feel like their cruiser culture is a bit more aged and tested.
Tools for sure are breaker bars, springs compressor, impact and a H - Frame press tool! I'd give yourself at least 2 good 8 hour days to get this done if you are serious.
I’m looking do you have a link to this kit? Wondering if it is available in a heavy duty set?
Just head to dobinson website and you can type in your cruiser info and it will guide to the right ones! Have fun! Love my suspension still! Sooooo smooth
Looks great. D
Great video. Bought a stock OME springs and shocks I'll be replacing the original equipment. Looking forward to it.
Thanks a ton Lalo! It was a fun job and a long anticipated one too! Jeez! I'm putting out another video about where one should start to repair and restore! And good for you on staying with stock! The cruiser is plenty high!
Also why did you decide to go with stock height and OEM? LET ME KNOW!!!
Thanking about doing the same set up how it’s ride so fare would you recommend it or something else? Thanks
Great question! I've now been riding on these for 3 years now! Though I haven't used any other brands. The quality is superb. It was I think $2300 for all of it. I kept the standard ride height and the response is super nice. For sure highly recommended. If you have a small lean on your gas tank side I would recommend a 30mm spacer. I used a 10mm and I wish I would have done a bigger one. Anyway! Let me know! Also I was worried about the colors making in look cheap and like a toy. But it's nice to have a peak of color popping threw!
Is 4 inch lift? WhatsApp size tire?
Stock height and same size tire. Which comes stock. Don't know the exact size! Sorry
You don't even need that spring compressor if you just get the car up higher and droop the axle down 1 side at a time. Why are you even thinking about the caster? You don't need to do any caster correction if you are doing stock height springs...or even anything under 2". So you don't have to replace those bushings.....but anyway.
Jesus Christ. Settle down dude. I didn't do a caster correction for one but I like new bushings since I'm there...having a spring compressor is called being prepared. Where's your how to video?! Your spray can wheels look cheap and ghetto. Have a good one
