I have been chopping and changing my parabolic suspension for a number of years and I am almost happy with it . what you do with your motor will change what you need from your setup, carrying heavy loads on roof rack and towing trailers will need stronger springs . what was fitted from factory was a compromise for most situations.
I had #hitpart fitted to my s2a 88 , a big improvement in ride and handling but they would not take the abuse I gave them , bushes lasted a year max they went flat before they were 2 years old.
I had a look to see what was avalible and liked the write ups on rocky mountain . they have twin leaf on front and 2 ,3 or 4 leaf on back . I was advised that 2 leaf rear springs would do me fine [aye right

] they were not much better than #hitpart , non standard bushes every year at eight quid each and they will eventualy go flat. you can add more leafs at a latter date if you want which is what I have done. I was advised to buy pro comp gas shocks for extra travel and improved handling [aye right

] got all the parts did a geometry check and the shocks bottom out 12 mm before the bump stops, sent them back for a full refund . I now have tripels all round on lwb shackels with hd lwb shocks , I find this setup fine for my abuses

SO think long and hard do lots of research into what you require out of them and don't be surprised if you change something sooner rather than later.
hope this hasn't put you off parabolics they are a much better ride than rusty old ones , and I would not go back to standard suspension.
