Ford territory towing issue

[smile0784]

Should i just put standard springs back in it that will be better then whats there now or go heavy duty?

there prone for shat suspension that brakes, couple of friends at work *had* territory that they took camping with light 4x4ing no real loads on board that the suspension broke, better off with a land cruiser or a Triton tbh. sorry to be blunt, triton/ land cruiser would be better options. ex has triton an carts horses from sa to nhill/colac alot of the time for events, freinds that 4x4 an boat use land cruisers o_0

I wanted a big 4wd but couldnt afford them. Like a hilux or ford ranger.
We looked at triton but with with me sitting in front seat there wasnt much leg room ans we wanted a family car and the land cruises was to expensive.
The territory was best money for what we wanted we could afford.

There is a firm in dandenong that raised and strengthened the spring on my ford wagon. Cost about 600 were i was quoted a grand or more from pedders.

I think you need to upgrade to heavy duty springs, 100mm is to much of a drop and will cause your shocks to bottom out and damage the internals.

I would also try to get some Koni adjustable shocks (not sure if they make them for a teritory but they do for the falcon) and you can adjust the firmness when you are going on a trip to suit.

The other option is to talk to a suspension place and see if air shocks are available for your vehicle and like that you can keep the same springs. Might be a cheaper option.

Most likely your car will have IRS suspension and will destroy tyres running that much lower. It will cost you more in the long run.
