Please advice me on old man emu suspension kits as i am planning to install on my fj.
I am going for nitrocharged sports shocks but i am confused about the springs. Personally i am planning to put medium on front and soft on rear.
Ps: My fj dont have heavy bumpers and winch.

ok Guyz;
I finished my research just now and changed my mind to the light springs all around. The parts numbers for stock FJz ( no addition loads) are
FRONT
Springs #2884
Nitrocharger sports shocks # 90000
REAR
Springs # 2895E
Nitrocharger sports shocks # 60004
NOTE: For complete information regarding all technical data for almost all 4x4 are available on the technical specification cataloge on

Enjoy.

Shafeiq ..
for FJC .. I recomand to get Medium in front to hold the engine wieght & soft in the back to reduce the humps ( I talking about the coils)
but for shocks, I advice you to get the normal shocks (not the sport) because the sport will make the car riggid & will lose car flixibility.
this is my advice for stock car, but if you are going to put more accessories later .. it will be something different ..

Thanks Mansour:
you were the first one I asked during the trip together. I was planning for the setup you recommended to me. I did alot of reach on ARB websites. The light load suspension kit is stiff by 35-40% to the original kit install on FJ. for the light kit the suspension is designed based on full fuel tank, 5 passengers and some gear load on the storage area.
The other good thing as i discussed with you, Bu Nasser was so nice and kind enough he brought me his medium OME kit to test it on my FJ and then decide and buy from ARB, but really this medium is very stiff.
