Hamish Grundy Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 hi, i have a 200tdi 90, 1986 model, i currently have a 2'' lift kit on it but the ride is realy harsh, i do mainly road miles but i do want to do the odd rtv. am i better off sticking with standard springs or can i get a set of 2'' lifted springs that will give me a nice soft ride? many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacks906 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 hi yep you can get decent 2" lifts with a nice ride old man emu are the best of the best but can be pricy i'm happy with my scorpian racing ones just phoned up told what weights i carry etc and advised/sld me the correct springs for fitting you need to know what kinda weights your planning to carry before you choose your springs as mine at the back are very soft so no good for towing heavy stuff (so need some more now) are your springs yellow or blue? dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacks906 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 you could fit the mat savage air bags in the rear for towing then you can have softer springs and just inflate the bags for towing http://www.mattsavage.com/acatalog/Air_Lift_Helpers.html dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
