Best springs?

I'm guessing mine won't be too harsh as I have tree sliders and reinforced sills (rotten originals replaced with 4mm steel box section) so there's a bit more weight to compress the springs.
Thanks again!

Ye, I think they are the same ones, they do different rates, but I think they are the ones I have.
Handleing is much better than before, but of course the old ones were FUBAR so I guess its all relative!
I also have rock sliders and a winch bumper so similar weights on board.
There is body roll, but its not a sports car after all? I'm not a speed freak so its unusual to get over 50 really! The articulation off road is what counts for me, and they're great.
Disco Matt:
So long as it corners with a bit less roll than the current set I'll be happy. Will have to order them next month, thanks for the help!

Hi Matt,
Simple question how much use is it going to get, do you want to replace them often (and yes I know there will be people happy with Britpart) if you don't mind 12 - 18 months (In My Opinion) of use, use the britpart or even Bearmach, or if you want to fit and forget them use OME, yes they are more expensive, but you get what you pay for.
Have a look in the Defender or modded section to see what people think, give the guy's at Devon 4x4 a call they will tell you exactly what to go for with the weight you want to carry.
