Wanting To Replace Standard Hight Suspension

<< < (2/3) > >>

muddyjames:
My disco was so saggy before the lift I'm not sure if mine is at standard height now or not. It has certainly gone up in the world though from where it weas. It doesnt hit the bump stops on every speed bump now I know that for sure!!! Also taking all my tool out the back raises the back end up 1/2 an inch too.

britpart have a special on at the minute for gas dampers i believe

drmike:
Why on earth fit those dreadful police spec springs? What benefits do they offer? The ones I had on the 90 were too stiff and restricted the articulation. I guess they might work better on a disco but it's all about spring rates etc. so if you want to keep the same height etc. then just replace with standard spings which are pretty cheap.

As for shocks I have used Pro Comps which are great and De carbons which I know some people don't like but they transformed my Rangie so I'd guess they would be pretty good for a Disco.

I replaced the standard shocks on the Disco with some gas shocks - Armstrong would that make sense and I don't think they are anywhere near as good as they should be. If I did it again it would be Pro Comps or De Carbon for sure.

Whatever you do, don't fit police spec Range Rover springs (red/white) to a disco. The standard duty disco rear springs are over 200lb/in whilst red/whites are only 170lb/in. Range Rovers are way lighter at the back and use much softer springs.
