lrfarmer Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 hi all can i fit 110 hicap rear spring on the rear of my disco 1. i do alot of towing and carry over 300kg of feed in the car so not too worryed about them being a bit hard. but as it is at the moment it's bottoming out with no weight in it. and i took my 90 to an RTV yesturday and had to load the 90 on the back of my trailer to try and keep the car level, so need to sort it before i have any heavy towing again.

I don't believe you can without modification, because they are a different diameter. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgasmic Farmer Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Simple answer is no. but you can get HD upgraded springs which will help. The Bearmach blue springs with a 40mm lift are pretty good as a budget choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeagent Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Both Island 4x4 and Paddocks do disco HD rear springs, they are Mil/police spec... They are listed as genuine by Island 4x4, but when they arrived they had the remanants of a britpart sticker on them which had been scratched off... they are only about £16 each.. i've not fitted them yet.

JimAttrill Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Best thing would be to fit air helper springs which you pump up when you have the extra load. Made by Firestone, I think. We see a few expedition prepared Discos which have them. Best of both worlds, it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
