I was talking to a friend today and he seemed to think the ford utes still had a leaf spring rear end, I thought surely not? but sure enough, pulled into a ford dealer on the way home and to my surprise they still are! I thought they would be irs by now...my question! how low can these utes go while still driving nice? I don't want it bouncing all over the road like a minitruck.any info/pictures are greatly appreciated.cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
