Ok, been searching the net for something tangible in the way of price and availability on Old Man Emu suspension/shock equipment. Not that I'm set on this equipment but just wanting more info regarding the cost and quality of their equipment. I realize their specialty may lean towards foreign makes but I'm willing to give them a look see. Anyone know where I might find this info?

 

Contact this guy he's a bronco owner in Australia. He might have the info your looking for.

i know alot of jeeper's and they all seem to love it, i hear is nice stuff, but kinda pricey

 

as trucky said, jeepers love ome stuff. apparently down under they are much more strict on lifting height limits. at least on jeeps they specialize in 2-2.5 in lifts

 

Thanks for info folks. Will look into this.

 

i thought emu was a toyota suspension company hehe. anyhow what you got brewing in your head GREY , you gonna go higher lift or what??

late

 

Kem,

Nah, truth is, I was looking at everybody's shocks in a research effort. The Pass. side front on the new Bronc. is just about completely dead. Get on a clover-leaf exit and lose a littel weight off the passenger side front and the whole truck starts to shimmy around like she's getting ready to take off. So, I'm lookin at anybody who makes shocks that will fit both stock and lifted applications. Greystreak is indoors for the winter and slowly being dismembered so come spring, I will be swapping my 4" lift under the new one.

 

Whatever happened to the suspect in the arson, if you're able to speak about it? I remember you saying that they had a guy in custody.

 

bigric,

The 4" Tuff Country suspension is all there and intact. I just have to swap everything over and my advice to anyone looking at Tuff Country is a very enthusiastic "go for it" but stay away from their shocks...stupid things look like they are about ten years old and they have only been under GS for two years. So, I am in search of a really good quality set of shocks and I am doing a lot of research just like I did before buying the suspension. So to fully answer your question, I intend to put the 4" lift under the new Bronco but plan on doing some axle and differential upgrades before the swap so I can just swap the 8.8 and D44 from Greystreak right under the new truck with all the mods that I want already in place.

 

I was actually referring to the guy who started the fire, but I was also interested in what you were able to get off of Greystreak. Sounds like you've got some big plans in store for the new truck...

 

Ohhhhh, sorry! I've put the whole experience behind me in an attempt to keep from getting angry all over again. Truth be known, the guy ended up being sent to "detox" and the authorites found out that he had been responsible for the other two car fires (obviously) AND several garage and dumpster fires in the neighborhood over the six to eight months prior to the incidents with the cars. So, the guy is pretty much inside for a very long time. I only regret that my neighbor (the lucky one who ran the guy down on foot after he set fire to his Nissan), didn't drag him down the block so I could have a "word" or two with him. Better that he's there though....sooner or later he was gonna do damage to something more important than buildings and vehicles and then I would have ended up in the cell that had his name on it... if you take my meaning.
