stuntman:
Thanks Dan

hairyasswelder:
Tonks 4x4 is local-ish and has Bearmach blue springs @ £55 a pair.  Paddocks do Goodrich hoses @ +4" for £50 for the set of 5

Dont know what he got in stock in the way of shocks but the lads there are very helpfull, they also know what they are playing with  :wink:

On my Rangy the brake lines are on a bracket on the inner wing so a body lift will stretch the origional, thought the early Disco was the same ?  :?

--- Quote from: "stuntman" ---Hello Jake, that's more than I was after paying, I know you get what you pay for.

I've always been one for buying the best I can afford. However this vehicle is not going to be lavished with cash, I have between 200-300 to spend.

Hello Dan, I was planning +5 was everyone seems to think the standard ones are too short, and as I was planning +2 on the suspension and 40mm on the body, I'd get a little lee way.

Why do it all at once?

Its quite easy to take a modular approch to suspension. Say just get the springs now and save up a bit more for the dampers, relocation cones and brakelines later when finance allows.


As for brake lines in particular, I have +4" lines which have more than enough movement in them for 2" body lift and 11" travel (+5") dampers its just a case of making better use of the avalible movement by extending the stiff lines downwards (which is very easy on the rear of a RRC and probably disco as well).

I fitted bearmach springs and procomp es9000 shocks £234
They have worked well for 3 1/2 years but I can't see the shocks lasting much longer (rust) :cry:

I put the custom made longer lines on last year (llama 4x4 £55) and jubilee clips on the top of the rear springs to stop them unseating (poped both out first time laning) :lol:

I will be buying the 3" kit next time same stuff as it works well and I'm on a budget too :wink:
