Help with Springs - Land Rovers Only

scotth · 03-12-2007, 11:25 AM

I will be installing a 2inch lift on my DiscoII vey soon and I need some pionters on how to install the springs on the front. I have already replaced the shocks awhile back so do I have to take them off again? The rear will be easy. I have SLS in the rear so I am going to install spacers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Springs on the front of a DII are easy. Unbolt the bottom of the shock and the four nuts on the shock tower- then lift the tower w/shock up (remove the intake tube to clear). Lower axle down and pull out spring-

I also have a lift on my 99 D2, with SLS. What coils are you using in the front, are you using the RTE 2" spacers. If you ave a questions let me know.

Thanks for the help. I will be ordering the springs and spacers sooner than I thought. I think I am going to order them in the morning so hopefully they will be here by the weekend. I am ordering the springs (HD) and the spacers from RTE. I don't think I'll have any problem installing the spacers because I have already replaced one of the bags a few months back. Can't wait until it gets here.
