Hi, Spent a fair bit of time searching the forum for an answer for this but cant find it so hopefully someone can help. I have just bought a pair of new old stock shocks for my S111 SWB and when i compare them to what i believe are the originals (Orange Unipart) they are far smaller diameter and all advertised look the same smaller size, is this Ok or have i got the wrong ones. Cheers,
 
You may have LWB ones fitted,an easy upgrade when fitting larger heavier tires.

Fitted with 16" steel wheels, are they standard ?, also the axle U bolts are bigger than the replacements purchased from Paddocks/Craddocks (1/2 against 7/16") but i guess this could just be penny pinching pattern parts as they were very cheap.
 
Not sure if 6 or 7 but ive only seen 15" steels on S111's so far (I'm new to Land Rovers if you hadn't guessed) so was 16"just an option from new ?
