why not use 2inch springs with 1inch spacers,having said that mate,110s are a bit unstable with a 3inch lift on them,probly the reason you cant find a kit :-k

... more stable than a 90 with the same lift - but still wobbly enough!

First question - what problem are you trying to solve with the lift?

Second question - have you considered brake lines and adverse steering effects (you will get 'em regardless what folk'll have you beleive)?

Just wanna make sure the modification is appropriate for what you'll be needing/doing.

I'm wanting to fit 35's, and I will be fitting full kit (castor correction, cranked trailing, extended hoses etc...)

To be honest, it was the pictures of yours in 'any modded 110 pics' thread that has inspired me  :lol: mine's a double cab, and yours is just the look I'm wanting... would you mind sharing the spec (wheels, tyres etc..) Cheers

35" will fit on a defender with a 2" lift, what do you need any more for?

My 110 is pretty high without a lift.  Might need to fit a Stannah stair lift to it??   :lol:
