I have an 1986 110 ex MOD (rhd) with an inline 5 cylinder turbo diesel riding on 7.50r16 MichelinXZL's/ Wolfe wheels, worn springs and a noticeable forward rake. Its time for new springs and tires and I'd like to level the 110, and haven't found some of the info on the forum.
How do i know if the installed springs are "normal" use, or HD springs? I've read that exMoD's had HD springs from the factory, but idk if these are the original springs.
Whats the best way to level the 110? Will oem length HD springs in the front and normal springs in the rear level it?
My understanding is that 255/85R16's are the "biggest" tire(widest / tallest) that can fit a "stock" setup. Is this due to potential rubbing, or is width of the wheel (or both). I also read someplace that 10.5" is the widest one can go safely on a 6.5" wide wheel. Has anyone put 305/70R16's on Wolfe wheels?
Thanks to all.
