Best springs?
Glynparry25:
I have Bearmach HD springs on mine.
Setup is 1.5" lift on the front and 2" on the rear. With that I have Pro-comp shocks all round. I paid £200 for the lot (4 springs, 4 shocks, 2 turret rings) inc postage. After that, all I had to do was camel cut to fit the 265-75-16s under the arches.
The ride is 100 times better than the standard springs and shocks- it feels very stable. All I can think of doing now is finnishing off with a dual shock configuration at the rear for addded stability for the fat rear-end.

Hi, I had a set of HD springs from MM 4x4 that where mil spec and had 7.50's on my old disco, only require a Camel cut for off roading. Springs were about £60 for the 4.
Disco Matt:
Another query, I'm considering adding dislocation cones at the front at the same time. Do I need extended brake lines or will they be fine?

If you aren't putting extended shocks on there is no need for dislocation cones or extended brake lines.

clbarclay:
Extended brake lines and dislocation cones are not directly related.
Extending brake lines depend on the length of the damper and its mounting locations.
Needing dislocation cones depend on the lenght of the damper plus mounting locations and the uncompressed length of the springs.
