Hi guy here are some pics of my landy. i want to increased its hieght what is the best way about doing this as its on springs? im new to the landy crazy but boy im loving it!!

How hard is it to put a v8 block in it?:doh:g

Nice landy, if you want to increase the height, stick some higher lift parabolic springs on instead of the standard leaf springs, the parabolics are just modern, nicer versions of leafs.

As for a V8, I once thought of doing that, but since my series 3 is a daily drive (not daily, but my only car) and I'm a poor student, I couldn't possibly afford the insurance or petrol, so I'm stick a 200 TDI in instead, but a V8 ain't too hard.
I'm sure someone else will tell you that though.

Enjoy your landy, is it your only car?

Hi there no my landy is a weekend play toy

i have an lpg kit on it atm too

. i am a plant fitter ( Repair diggers and dumpers) so ive got loads of tools

. were is the best place to get them springs? can you get better hangers for them too

Decent Parabolics are in shortage atm so you need to have a hunt round, And if you want even more of a lift you can fit 1-tonne Shackles...

DON'T GET BRITPART PARABOLICS FFS!
