Hard as Nails

[zulublue]

The ride in my Truck cab is to say the least firm, speed humps are like launch pads, I have OME Nitro shocks all round and OME 763 springs, (well on the back) these were fitted before I purchased the 90, which was supposed to be a +3" lift.

I thought it was too hard and I would not get much articulation, so I called Devon 4x4 today and spoke to Liz, she said that OME don't do a +3" lift so she thought they were +2" but heavy duty, after a look through her book she said that the springs were 140lb over rated for my 90, that would explain the hardness of the ride.

So i have ordered 4 nice new OME +2" springs off Devon at £58 + vat a corner I hope they are worth it.

2 of the 763's will be up for sale soon as the rear ones look fairly new, I will have a look at the fronts when they come off. so I need to find out what the OME 763 spring is supposed to be on, I suspect a 110 or 130 can anyone inform me please.

Must admit it was like a Ferrari around the corners

I've got 763's on the front of my 90

they were just right (with 762's on the back), but mine is a full hard top, external cage, 8274 and BRB nudge bar, so weighed as much as a small village.

This should be interesting then, I have an 8274 with extended barrel on the front and a heavy winch bumper to suit. god knows what springs are on the front.

110 & 130 rear springs are a larger diameter than 90s, discos and RRCs

A disco uses heavier duty springs on the rear than either a RRC or a 90 so that might be what they were for (or else some expedition loaded 90!)

I have now fitted my D44 OME springs from Devon 4x4, they feel alot better on the road, I have not used them on the twisty stuff yet, does anyone else run these springs and what are they like for articulation?

£289 I hope there good
