I'm looking at the way to soften my hilux ride
Everything stock now.
will adding double shackers improve the comfort?
Do i need to change the absorbers as well ? e.g. titan, armada or rancho adjustable
will adding space arm helps?
Also by the way, is there any hilux club around klang valley?

Double shackles could be dangerous. There are some writeups on the net, Google it. Most trucks - 'bumpy' by design (no rear load). I don't carry much so I didn't need the stiffness = cut little bit of the leaf spring. Front/Rear absorbers = Bilstein/Rancho XL9000 respectively. Space Arm added, but more for stability than comfort. Tyres 31x10.5 R15 (-ve 27mm) so added King Springs (FR) and extended ball joints; raised back with longer shackles (not double shackles). Drives like a car now, and a lot less bumpy on my offroad trips as well.

After so long, finally back to this forum.
Just an update, I just change my Hilux3.0 rim to original Fortuner 17" rim with Michelin rubber.
Overall its a better ride after the upgrade.

You can never fixed bouncy bcause that's the trait of leaf spring..the best u can do is to reduce it..try google for the method of it..most famous,remove 1 piece of your leaf spring, or change it..both will reduce your payload

My one and halfyear Hilux. Last two days fuel indicator lightup at panel eventhough fuel more than half tank.. I thought it just an error and need to reset. Send to Toyota and was informed that it was cause by diesel filter clogged or it mixed up with water and need to change. Poor Malaysia Diesel. Damage RM118.00. He said if it happen again within 2 month it need to bring down the tank for cleanning.

What happens the tanks at the petrol station. some old ones leak water in. sometimes when the tanks also very dirty hence dirt is also mixed with the diesel. it could also be contaminated diesel tankers. I try never to pump at those ulu-ulu/run down stations. So far my lux still okay after 200,000 km

then i make a google search ... there's a device to jam frequency signals in this case its a car remote frequency jammer device
just be cautious if suddenly yr remote cant work ... drive to other area n try again
