Extra weight - will I need a lift?

Budgie:
One other thought Cal, and I know it may sound like teaching Granny to suck eggs but, are you sure you got the springs the right way round. It is possible to put the rears on the front, in which case the front will be sitting higher than the rear.  :wink:

Cal:
Thanks guys.

Sorry to hijack the thread Horness  :oops:

I would hope so Budgie - I didn't do it myself as I'm rubbish at that sort of stuff. But I have looked underneath and you can just about tell that the rear springs are progressive and the front ones aren't.

Both front and rear are +25% so I just assumed that that's why the front is/looks higher than it did before.

You've got me worried now - maybe I should get a 2nd opinion!  :lol:

Horness:
Don't worry Cal.  :wink:

Thanks Henry and Budgie.  Email dropped to Famous Four to see what I need.
I am happy to swap out the spacers to be honest, if that's what is needed to do it right.  The reason they are there is because I was not doing that much off-road in the Disco, but lately, and especially when I get my new family car, it's going to get used a lot more.

Cal:
I'd be interested in what they say Horness if you don't mind letting us know?
