Disco 2 Bouncy Rear End

Shimsteriom said:

The rear of my TD5 seems a bit bouncy, which I've attributed to knackered rear shocks (feel free to correct me). I've removed the rear seats which has reduced the weight on the rear, so when I come to replace the rear shocks, are there softer ones available, or should I just stick with stars ones?

No serious off roading or towing and is used for my daily commute.

Even though all the rear seat have been removed? I was gobsmacked by how heavy they were

Just had a thought.... Would softer shocks put more load on the airbags?

the rear seats are not that heavy in the overall weight of the vehicle,and yes the softer the shocks,the less resistance,just use standard ones,jm recommends britpart yellow ones.

Shocks dampen the movement, springs carry the weight
