I stand corrected, I thought I'd fitted mine the wrong way up after following a couple of lifted LR's  but didn't worry as I had no handling issues :oops: but on checking I've fitted mine the right way  :wink:

.....and all the mud fills up the tighter coils if they're in the bottom!!  :wink:

Thanks guys, sorted now. The Disco is slowly getting sorted, this week its having new suspension and and rear cones, new rear discs and pads, new rear wheel bearings, can you believe that both rear brakes were siezed solid!!! When she gets back on the road I will have to be careful with the middle pedal, funny thing is that I have never had a problem stopping her.
Will find out tomorrow what condition the fronts are in...fingers crossed!!
Thanks a lot
Fram.

Range Rover Blues:
Glad to see it's coming along mate.  When you get the rear brakes fixed you'll find the pedal effort about the same TBH but there will be more travel.

fram:
We need a whole calliper one side and the pistons need replacing on the other side!
I'm hoping the fronts will be ok, something was stopping her :shock:
