sagging disco

adam300tdi · Jun 15, 2013

im trying to work out if my disco front end has sagged or if the back end is high because its been bobtailed.its got 2 inch lift and 2 inch spacers but the front is 1 inch maybe more lower than the rear.the reason im thinking it may have sagged is because the distance between each coil on the rear is just over an inch,but the front its probly only half an inch you can only just get your finger in between coils.would be a big help if other people with a 2 inch lift could have a look at theres for me and give me an idea of what mite be rong

I'd say it's sagged. Bounce the front end and post how easy it is to bounce and guess how far.

Bubble300tdi · Jun 15, 2013

Could be due to weight i.e winch steering guard, bumper etc ??

adam300tdi · Jun 15, 2013

ive got a winch and winch bumper and a steering guard.another reason y i think it mite have sagged is the lad who i got it off got the lift kit first and i dont think its got the heavyer duty springs on to compansate for all that extra stuff

and i can easily push it down and make it bounce up and down.and it goes down a few inch mayb

Yeah cheaper ones won't be as strong. I don't know the weights you will want but once my V8 gets its winch I will need the pro comps
