Basic suspension upgrades?

Henry Webster:
I think it is fair to say that whatever you do - hitting your head on the roof comes as standard with a series motor. :lol:

I can tell you this from experience after nearly ten years in the navigators seat of a Land Rover series 1 doing the Hillrally championship. :shock:

The Discovery is a much smoother ride even though it is alot heavier! 8)

in that case, you can remove some of the leafs so the spring rate is lower. it might make it sit a bit lower, but it should soften the ride a bit

Miniman:
Its just a rough ride what you complaining about... I have fit better seats that has made a huge difference to my bottom.....lol

Well worth doing. Get some spare seats and fit them its alot better ride for you.....

MattW:
Thanks for the tips guys - I will try greasing the springs I think. I've removed leaves before from the suspension on my NCF Blitz but that was only because the buggy weighed about 1/2 as much as the donor vehicle.
As far as seats go - what seats have people fitted? I spoke to one guy who had fitted some peugeot 205 seats.

Miniman:
I have Honda seats which took very little fitting. They are a bit big front to rear and large people can't fit in or under the steering wheel. But that's why I am THE MINIMAN.....LOL
