Tired suspension on 110...time to upgrade

[Def110TDi]

Hi Guys and Gals,

Ok, so the suspension on my 1995 has sagged and its time to replace some parts, does anyone know where to buy a STD height suspension kit (springs, shocks, plates, nuts bolts and turrets etc) or would i be best just forking out more money and lifting the 110, also can this job be done in my drive with one massive trolley jack and two axle stands?, had a search and cand find any, i've also been told not to go for "****part" stuff as its, apparently cheap and not worth fitting, any views welcome......??

Cheers Robert

Need to jack the body and let the axle drop but easy job
Your jack is the same as mine by the way

Cool, gonna sound daft but what is the details on the jack, IE capacity and stuff, was given to me broken with no history behind it?

I bought a well priced procomp and bearmach setup for my standard height project. Seems to have good feedback

I have just fitted Britpart yellow springs to my 110 hi-cap and bought another set for my 110 camper... Some stuff I wouldn't touch but a lot is fine. Go for better shocks, maybe procomp...?

If lifting you should be extending brake hoses and changing your radius and trailing arms. If not heavily offroading don't bother...

May be time to look at your bushes all round

purchased my shocks and springs from flatdog. they do various heights and weights so you can choose. Ive got Koni shocks on my 90 which i rate highly, althoughly they were a little bouncy too start with they have settled in nicely.
