    Default Ke70 Wagon rear end set up

    Hey 86dc

    so i just talked a mate into buying a ke70 wagon with a standard TE front end so we got the front end sorted being the easiest and the same as a 86
    but im stumped on what to do with the rear end at the moment its on 2" lowering blocks and it handles like crap borderline dangerous haha
    so i need to tips on what to run i have been told sierra shock silly question but suzuki or GMC sierrra ? also any model or year in particular?
    im going to get the leafs reset but anyone know how much or many springs to do i want it stiff but not ridiculous, want it to handle well and when i want
    to kick out easy and be predictable.

    so if you could post up spec and ideas or even what you run would be much appreciated. : ) thanks guys

    get better dampers

    better tyres

    reset leaves (not too low or stiff) (cut bump stops)

    swaybar kit if you so desire

    new bushes

    consider adding a panhard rod

    I've done it the worst possible way. I flipped my leaves and sitting on cut bumpstops, but hey, it handles perfect, bar it being super bumpy.
    I'd get the leaves reset and add another 1 or 2 to the pack. Someone told me sierra shocks are the way to go aswell, or trd blues maybe?
