JST Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 looking for something cost efficient for a 1" only lift on a td5 90 hardtop. no winch and dont really want HD ones as it will bounce around to much. suggestions from experience please.

BogMonster Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I would say Mill Services 1" lifters but he ain't making them at the moment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 springs need doing though so either std again and spacers or something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Baldwin Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 RR HD (red/whites) from Craddocks. Cheap as chips and not so HD they'll make your teeth fall out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveG Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 RR HD (red/whites) from Craddocks. Cheap as chips and not so HD they'll make your teeth fall out. Unfortunately on a TD5 90 HT these will lift the front by 2.5" and the rear by 1.5-2" James I would be tempted to go for standard springs again and fit the rubberised spring isolators top and bottom that were used on the RR and Discovery, ANR2938. This would lift it by 20mm all round and give good handling. The isolators reduce noise and vibration too.. IIRC they are a few pounds each. In case you need it, the standard springs on a 90 TD5 HT are.. RH Rear NRC9448 Blue/Red 15.31" 225 lbs/inch RH Front NRC9446 Blue/Green 15.19" 175 lbs/inch LH Rear NRC9449 Yellow/White 14.80" 225 lbs/inch LH Front NRC9447 Blue/Yellow 14.80" 175 lbs/inch Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Cheers Steve, is that what you went back to on your after trying the red and whites? or you runnng a 2" lift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveG Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 went for 2" lift using Britpart springs for the 255/85 BFG's. May look at Old Man Emu at some point as the rear sits a bit high. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
