Hey all,

Has anybody ever noticed that Australian Explorers (96-2002) have normally arc'd rear LEAF (feel free to suggest the proper terminology here), while North American versions have a backward curve at the fixed bracket end?

Does the Australian model share the same Rear Leaf as the Ranger?

I don't get the idea behind the design of the North American model's spring, except that they lower the rear end a little bit.

Thanks for your inputs.
