Drooping!!
mudslinger53:
Cheers Chris, I will have a look at different springs. I have seen one other range rover with a diesel conversion and that also drooped to the offside...

One of the RRC at home has been converted from V8 to a TDi and it doesn't lean or atleast doesn't lean enough for me to have noticed. It does seem low and rather soft in the springs but considering its predcessor had HD lift springs that doesn't particuarly surprise me. Its predecessor (factory VM engined) does lean, but thats probably more to do with the aftermarket springs.
R2D2:
Probably, if you tell your local 4x4 shop that it's bobbed and got a 200 tdi in he will suggest the correct springs for it. When I ordered mine he asked if it was diesel or v8.
Probably ignore the cut and give you a set for a diesel unless you've shortened the chassis?
My +2's on the back have levelled it up and seem to have sorted the lean to drivers side as well.
Good luck

Cheers David, I will ask at local 4x4 dealer, JSF, Norwich. I have also heard about " Police springs" but not too sure what they are or if they would help me........perhaps they come with blue flashing lights and a siren ! ! ! I will post a reply when I find out what I am going to fit, Thanks to all replies, Dave...Norwich

As far as I'm awware the polic spec springs for the read were the standard HD spirng AKA red/white stripe. These are what I have on the back of a RRC (not bobtailed, but all rear trim and rear seats reomved) which had the bodge SLU cut off about a year ago. From experiance they are not a substitute for the SLU, having loaded it with over half a ton in the back the headlights were more like air raid search lights.
