RRS chassis very hard

Hi there,

I drive a 4.4 liter V8 RRS Bezin BJ 05
I feel the chassis as super hard and not comfortable.
Is there a possibility to change something in the chassis to make it a little softer. Each bump shakes me right through.

I have read that the suspension or the shock from the Discovery 3 should be somewhat softer. Is this meaningful?

Has anyone ever installed the front shock from the Discovery 3 in the RRS?

I have the car you are only 2 months and am very disappointed with the comfort of the chassis.

Thanks in advance

lg tommy

What size are the wheels? If you can change to a smaller size with a larger profile tyre there will be significant improvement in the ride. 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

I ride the original 20 "Stormer wheels.
Yes, I've also read that often affects the tire size the comfort.
However, I want to mount me no smaller tires.
The discovery 3's with 20 "and more comfortable than the RRS. So will the difference be due to the suspension I think.
Therefore, the question whether the suspension could fit.

many thanks for the reply
