bent parabolics

i bent my front springs at the weekend and im wondering if any one can give me a good cheap alternative to the britpart ones iv bent driving softly softly so as not to break anything at a p&p site, used off road twice and bent (its a bloody land rover it was designed to go OFF road britpart, your parabolic springs are clearly not fit for purpose!).

are the all makes ones ok?

Try GB Springs - excellent value for money, but if you want more then Rocky Mountain... or top of the range would be Heystee

i no there not parabolics but i found famous four sell the old 11 leaf 1s for about £40 a sprng and they only charged us 6/7£ for 2 springs
ben

I would replace with the original ones, they were made for the job.

There has got to be laws against selling those ****part parabolics buy standard put them on there great.check my 88 with new standard springs

i removed one of the springs today they are 18 months old and the rear bush has GONE worn allmost completely away just leaving metal insert rattling around in there, i think i will just put som std ones on but 9 leaves i dont need heavy duty ones, just gotta keep them clean and lubed for a little ride comfort eh!

I put a set of GB springs parabolics on mine about 8/9 years ago and they are still going strong, they haven't bent and it still sits straight.(and has had years of serious abuse offroad) If you want paras gb springs are a very good buy.

P.s you won't do this with STD springs

No I don't like them,they last longer but rubber ones have got more flex in them so I put standard rubber ones in mine.

mine were clearly absolute ****e then great waste of money that was thanks ****part and craddocks for supplying them

get a refund!

you need to know where your receipt is for that it was about 18 months ago so im not sure they would honor it any way

dont know about rocky mountain mines went flat within 6 months wont b buying them again
