I'd suggest Britpart Yellow springs - they are ceratinly
very popular around here with those that tow a lot.
options are:
Front
-----
DA4201 Spring - Front RRC/Disco/90 Medium Duty 30mm
Lift 20-50Kg Load (Pair)
- Britpart Yellow £55.00 inc VAT
or for a slightly higher lift
DA4202 Spring - Front RRC/Disco/Def Heavy Duty 40mm
Lift 50-110Kg Load (Pair)
- Britpart Yellow £55.00 inc VAT
Rear
----
DA4203 Spring - Rear RRC/Disco/90 Light Duty 40mm
Lift Light Load (Pair)
- Britpart Yellow £62.00 inc VAT
DA4204 Spring - Rear RRC/Disco/90 Medium Duty 50mm
100Kg Load (Pair) - Britpart Yellow
£62.00 inc VAT
DA4205 Spring Rear - RRC/Disco Heavy Duty 50mm Lift
200Kg Load (Pair) - Britpart Yellow
£62.00 inc VAT
The medium duty rears give the 50mm lift, but they are
pretty "stiff" - the heavy duty rears are, well, solid
and I'd suggest that they are best reserved for those
who lots of very heavy towing.
Cheers
Richard
