Can't say fur sure mate but they're not cracked or owt (apart from the ****ty paint)... why d'ye ask? D'ye want them??

could do with some for the front of the 90 (think the 1's i have are probably the originals from new :D 87 reg)
i replaced the rear pair few years ago with + 2" hd ones so she's a tad nose low
dont know if the rear 1's you have would redress the balance or not.
my driving style tends to bottom them out now and then :D

From what ah've heard, the front ones are the same as 90 rears so dunno if they're the same as yer 90's front??? But if they are, ye're more than welcome tae have them mate;):D

sounds good mate need a courrier now i spose :rolleyes: dont need the shocks though bud got OME all around :D
 
i had a set of monroe before and and when i replaced the rear axle sheared the bottom nut off FFS thats why i went to OME

Just bin and dug the original box out and it says... spring kit front h/d 90 corresponding to part no. DA4277
so it looks like ye should be ok fur the front mate;)
 
spoke to guy at mm4x4 he says it's unusual to have dodgy britpart spring,
they are 13mm different in height but when you look at the front it looks worse. sent him pics he asked for awaiting reply. tried taking measurements from chassis to various points but none seemed to be the same. is the front ****ed or is it me.

HAHAHAHAA! He would say that if he's sellin' them:rolleyes::D


Remember yer fuel tank and yersel' sittin' on the lower side will bring it down a bit... filled it up recently?;)
 
in the pic 90 is empty, got 1/2 tank diesel but that should not make any difference should it, the tank is in the centre at the back

It shouldn't really... soz, ah thought yer tank was under the seat!
Silly question.... were the springs fitted the right way round?
 
fronts were put on front and rears on the rear. There was nothing to indicate a left or right side spring. am i missing something here?the 90 is a td5

What ah meant was, was one of the front springs slightly taller than the other?
Did they have any colour markings on them?
 
not that i was aware of i put them next to each other and they looked exactly the same, and they were all just plain yellow, when i bought them i queried about the backs as they were only slightly taller than the originals , apparently they are stiffer and do not compress as much

Aye ah remember now mate... haven't looked back on the previous posts!
There is definately summit wrong as my front end never sat like that wi' the yellow springs...
