Had 110 since Jan this year and have added winch bumper(winch still to be added), roof rack and tree sliders. As far as I know its got original suspension or if its been replaced its standard. Does it look like it is sitting low to anyone?

Tyres are 265/75r16 BFG MT. Adding these have made it look lower as they really fill the arch. Looking to replace the springs and shocks. Was thinking terrafirma shocks with new standard springs, can't decide if I should look for HD springs though.

Hmm I've hardly got anything in the back at the moment. And it is sitting lower than the front by the looks of it. Where is the self leveller located on a 110? I've looked for it before but wasn't entirely sure where it was meant to be.
 
It doesn't have a self leveller, only thing that adjusts is brake balance (situated on the rear axle). The springs were just set up for extra load and therefore sit higher than a 90. The springs more than likely have sagged all round, they tend to after 20 or so years of 2.5 ton pressing down on them!

If your going to off road then get some extended springs, will help with ground clearance in the middle (for whoever is going to say it yes I know axles and tyres denote ground clearance but I'm talking about center clearance as 110's are quite long). If your going to fit a winch bumper HD springs will help with the extra weight your about to add on aswell...
