Hi guys!
First of all, sorry for my bad English.
I have an early Disco II Td5 and I need to change its front coil springs because they are sagging. They are the stock ones (REB101340 both sides since it's a LHD).
Now, I'm not looking for big lifts or anything like that but, since the springs need to be changed, I thought it might be a good idea to install some uprated springs from the facelift Disco II. This way it would raise a little bit, small enough to allow me to keep the stock height shock absorbers (which are in good shape). I'm expecting something like a 1.5-2cms lift.
More precisely, Im thinking on the yellow/orange coil springs (REB000350) or the pink/brown ones (REB000490), but the last ones probably will make the ride too uncomfortable.
What do you think about that? Is it possible? What kind of height increase, if any, I can expect? Has anyone tried to fit this uprated springs designed for the facelift Disco II in an early one?
Please do notice that I don't have winch or any kind of heavy equipment installed, just the original A-bar. Also, I know this may be an almost insignificant height increase. But, since I have to change the coils, I would like to obtain this small lift in order to, for example, have more flexibility to fit bigger tyres one day.
Cheers!
