JimAttrill Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 While we are on the subject of 110 rear springs: My 95 csw (not levelled, none are over here) came with the red/red green/red springs which are correct for the model. I recently bought a set of 4 new(ish) springs from Aubrey who had fitted OME springs. The rears look different to the ones I have and are coded purple. These are from a 2005 TD5 110 csw. These springs are not in my parts catalogue. Does anyone know what the rating is compared to my original h/d springs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark90 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Don't know what the rate is but they are softer than the 330lb r/r r/g HD rears you have been using. I have some to fit to my 110 as soon as I find the time. I think they should be a good compromise between the 330lb HD ones and the 180lb+load leveler option.

Hybrid_From_Hell Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 red/red green/red springs are 15.55 and 16.02 inch free length XXHD at 330 Lbs rating There are some non genuine RR XXXHD Rears at 17.2 inch and from memory only about 250 lbs, but I am not 100% sure what these ones are you have ?? Can you give any more info, thickness of coil in mm, number of coils, or full height uncompressed, have loads of spring stuff, will have a rummage Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark90 Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 The purple stripe ones are genuine LR part, as fitted to the rear of TD5 110's, certainly SW's not sure if the HT's are still fitted with the 330lb ones. They where introduced to replace the 180lb + self leveler combo previously fitted to 110 SW's. Will measure mine when I get a mo, they're in the loft at the mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exmoor Beast Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 I would be very interested in seeing the spec for TD5 110 rear springs, they seem to sit quite high compared to mine but that may be my tyres filling the arches more...

sclarke7171 Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Rumors tell me the following............. In Oz the 110's had Red/Green rear coils on all 200's and 300's. Then the TD5 had the Purple Coils. The Purple are also on the 130 with the internal Load levelers. Rates for the Purple are 220-420lbs, they are progressive, so the 220 is until they bind, then the 420 kicks in. I have a 110 Hardtop i'm converting to a Truck cab Ute, i'll pull my Red/Green out and put some Purple in to compensate the loss of the roof and rear panel weight.
