Hopefully Robert Taylor will chip in here!
RT, the machine weighs approx 1370kg, takes a load of 1400kg, works on pavement smooth and very rough paddocks.
What other valving spec and nitrogen pressure do you recommend? I'm presently running 520psi.
I would like to set it up to my weight...97kg
I look forward to your input

Ring up your good mate Helen and ask for some undercarriage off the A4s she( it ) callously took out of service, they started life as carrier aircraft and may have the capacity for your loading stats.

Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes! Thinking of a Goldvalve kit or an Ohlins cartridge for the nose gear, too :bleh:

Well....................Ohlins are making shock absorbers for armoured vehicles / troop carriers in the middle east, so why not?
