Yeah that’s definitely a raised spring seat, you could swap them for standard and loose an inch or 2 on the height straight away

certainly if they are fitted you above a 2" lift i believe unless they changed them without doing springs and shocks, which would be unusual, my bet is 4" lift.
What do the front brake pipes look like are they braided or are they rubber with a plastic spiral coating ?
If it has had a significant lift then the brake pipes would have been changed

Now the question is does it have a two or four inch lift ? Are those 2" longer springs or standard ?

I'll measure my +2" ones tomorrow ... i'll say +4", +2" springs and +50mm riser plates. The springs look like Britpart HD's too which hardly compress under the weight of a standard 90.
@Mudhound here;s a link to the spring risers mentioned. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAND-ROV...813418?hash=item3b3cf5d1aa:g:MSAAAOSw-uhaT5fp

That sounds like an idea, will do a bit of googling for spring seats. Thank you

When I first saw your post I thought it looked like more than a 2" lift.
If you measure from the ctr of the hub front and back to the wheel arch I will compare with my (recent) like for like + 2" replacement dampers and springs. This is mine during fitting.

From my own experience with Britpart HD on 90, "Ouch"

Sorry didn't get to this today.
Here is a pic of my new (rear) springs ...
The Drivers is 17" tall and the nearside is 16.5"

My measurements for a 2" lift as fitted are front 20 1/2 inch, rear 21 inch. That is taken from the ctr of the hub vertically to the bottom of the wheel arch.
I fitted std duty + 2 " britpart, and dampers to match, I do not have any problems with driving/cornering etc, so quite happy with it. I do tend to get through prop U J's every couple of years, but that is also down to the very sandy mud we have around me.
