heavy duty springs

Has anybody had expirience of the rear britpart rear heavy duty2 inch lift springs, whats the ride like they look mighty beasts.

Superb for the first 3 or 4 hundred yards..then they fall off. Buy quality parts.

save ur money. if i end up puttin mine back to standard springs to sell then u can have my full set of allmakes hd springs, shocks n droppers for £250

surely if you put them on properly they aint coming off

Thats what LR said about gaylander doors, 1 puddle and......... enuff said!

Don't put them on too properly, it'll make it easier to swap them for decent springs when they start sagging in a weeks time.

I've put Bearmach HD 2" lift springs (the blue ones) on my 90 and the ride is very firm on the road as it should be. Should be fine for green laning when carrying weight but not so good if off-roading with a vengence as the articulation won't be as good as with standard duty springs.

i have had std heavy duty bripart springs for years now theyve been the best ive ridden on ,i know some britpart stuff is **** but then so alot of cheap stuff from other suppliers i would really recommend there spring and damper kits from experience put not there unamed brgs again from experience

cheers for the last 2 answers i agree a lot of britpart is crap but i cant fault there shocks and about to try there yellow hd 2" lift springs wich seriously look the part

I think Sirus fitted some to the back of his 110. I believe he had to fit a new set of springs again within a year cos the britpart ones were sagging like a grannies tits.

I have had britpart 2" hd suspension fitted since April 2009 and am happy with them so far. The ride is firm on the road and I find driving on road to be improved, especially cornering and on country roads with camber issues. Ok for greenlaning if a little bumpier and rougher than
standard suspension. I don't do any real offroading but would reckon articulation not as good. Depends really what you want to use it for. Britpart get a lot of bad press and possibly correctly but perhaps I have been lucky and no complaint thus far.

"try there yellow hd 2" lift springs" no problem after 3 or 4yrs on my 110 so far, great support when fitted with pro comp ES9000.

ive got a pair of +2" h/duty 110 yellow britpart springs for sale, only had em fitted for a week, they were ok on they road but too stiff for off road use, they may be good if your carrying a lot of weight, looking for £25 if you want them.

Get springs for a 130"...

nice one johnlad but im after standerd height as im in and out the back all the time the height is a pain thanks any way

"That's the paddocks kit aint it?"

Sorry for the delay in replying; yes I believe it is.
