My 4wd Armada Grand Rolls a lot.( The shock absorbers are brand new bolero's. When I was comparing the number of leaves in the leaf springs with a bolero, I found it is one less. Can somebody please tell me what is the correct number of leaves in the spring set. It is by chance the same as bolero.?

Jaggu bhai, Suresh Sir called me asking the same. Took time as I was compiling the information on NGCS Armada.

• Rear spring assy- 097928 (No. of leaves= 5)
• Shock absorber assy rear- 084837
• Front spring assy- 084818 (No. of leaves= 6)
• Shock absorber assy front- 084823
• Stabilizer bar front (Tubular chassis)- 075793

Non-NGCS versions came with 9 leaves at the front (031699) and 10 leaves at the rear (073420). If you could provide me the shock absorber of Bolero I would be in a better position to comment whether the shock absorber rates are on the lower or higher side. Also, please check the shackle mountings for their inclination/misalignment this may also affect the handling. Hope this solves the mystery.

PS- IIRC MP Sreenivasan from Bangalore also owns a Armada, don't remember which model.
