Am I wrong in my observation that the OEM Speedometers on these ECVs have a very high failure rate? Or is it just a mirage? Mine stopped working and I have checked all the wiring and read all the values with nothing wrong. Thinking about adding a GPS speedo. Thank you

For now, I will reinstall the removed stock springs and get a set of Cepek shocks to install at a later date. I have no problem spending $1500,00 for a set of lifetime shocks. It does rub me raw to spend $1800.00 on a set of springs lol

Sorry about that I needed to drink the rest of my coffee :D

TOBASH, I would have tried the spacers if the springs had not collapsed, but as they are, they have very little spring left in them, so adding the spacer would only collapse them more, I believe. The spacers, I believe, are 1" or 2", and I lost over 3 inches of fender clearance. However, I am...

Well, I took the plunge and installed the Armada/ MOOG 81085 springs in the front position. Based on my calculations, I cut one ring from the springs to achieve the closest ride height I had with the old springs. With the new springs, I effectively lowered the front end 3"s!! This was not the...

Thank you for the cipher. I will apply it and see what the end result will be. It should be interesting, to say the least. Best regards

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I have looked through this forum and can't seem to find the answer to my questions. Perhaps I can ask some of you experts to help? I have been attempting to install the Armada 4x4 springs in my 1165 with a winch and ibis-tech bumper. Most of the posts on...

I have read and considered the Armada springs; I believe they will work for my application as my M1165 is light. I am not sure what the advantage is of having the Cepek shocks, but I will research. I appreciate the feedback. My kidneys thank it as well Haha

Thank you for the info, I have searched the forums for a solution to the M1165 for softer springs and not sure which way to go?

I am curious: would the 954s fit an M1165 A1? Just looking for a softer ride, not trying to do a lift or level.

Does anyone know the hose routing of the DWF system on an M1165A1? I am attempting to correct the hack job the DEMIL did! I have looked in the TM and it shows the earlier models but not the ECV. I may be looking in the wrong manual? I can only find one hose near the DWF valve and I assume it...

Nice you will love ARB lockers IMO they build a solid locker.

Oh I have seen the same thing and you are correct! I am not selling it I was offering it as an alternative and would make sure he knows. Just trying to hook a brother up.

I do know that I was just offering if he could use it, But thank you for the input.

Beerthirty If you need a rear differential I have a heavy variant 3.08 I will part with.
