torrentace Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Advice needed.........Due to a back injury I am having to have fitted a set of parabolic springs to my series 3 swb in a search for more comfort. It will now only be used on the road ( 99.5 % of the time ) apart from going up the dirt track to my home. Has anyone any preferences as to which make of parabolic springs are the best suited to road use? also anyone have suggestion on what make of dampers to fit to suit. Many thanks in advance .

Tonk Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 any springs should give u the ride comfort u r looking for, i'd say TI are probably the best but u'll have trouble getting them. i've just fitted rocky mountains which sit well but i haven't driven on them yet. procomp shocks are good for the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPR Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 M8, The terms comfort and SIII cannot be reliably used in the same sentence No springs are going to make a huge difference when it comes to back pain - start looking for better seats!

FridgeFreezer Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I dunno - my parabolics (TIC) compare pretty well to coilers - not quite the same but not far off. Certainly much better on the back, although LR seats are a separate issue whatever springs you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrentace Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 Many thanks for your inputs, am keen to give it a go as I have a lot of work and money invested in my landrover and the thought of selling it for a car turns me pale !
