Divster Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 I'm tryin to get hold of the PN's for the heavy duty suspension as used in 130's (They use a inner helper spring as well as the standard rear spring). Can anyone give me the PN's they use on all the springs (front, rear and helper) in this setup. I'm also after a diagram showing what other (different) parts are used when the helper springs are installed. I presume there must be a difference in both the retaining method at the axle and something different on the chassis end of the spring. Any help is much appreciated Quote

mmgemini Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 I've just added 130 helper springs to my 110 Defender SW. A much nicer ride. The rear is lifted by about three inches. A simple job. Just order the two springs. The four plates. Two top and two bottom. The plates are about 25 quid each. Get four longer bolts to hold the bottom spring plates in position. Have a look here. Page two how I did mine. http://www.landroveraddict.com/smf/index.php?topic=358612.0 HTH mike FOAK I can cause trouble in an empty house !!! Quote
