what would a second hand lift kit be worth?

The Kit I have bought is from a company called Maltings - link below, the kit is not shown on the website, but is available from ebay, if you call them and ask for Luke, he knows exactly which kit it is. https://maltings4x4store.co.uk/

the ones that are on are Terrafirma, but found a full kit online with Armstrong shocks for 170, its going to cost at least 120 for springs, so thinking to bite the bullet and replace for the sake of an extra£50

I now have the suspension in bits, the shocks are like new, no issues what so ever. It is safe to replace the springs with standard ones and use the shocks that was on the 2in lift kit?

Hi, That I do know, its a 22L, one of you king gents helped me with that the other day.

Hi, Managed to get the whole of the front axle stripped this weekend and started assessing what is U/S, sadly one of the swivel housings, O/S the steering drop arm joint has worn it elliptical, so assume this is now scrap. I have looked...

guilty as charged, I am a grumpy old git, point noted, will post bigger in future, but joking aside thank you

The reason I think it is not the original, is that it has yellow markings on it like the stuff you see at scrap yards, but nothing that makes any sense

Hi, I have just started the restoration of our 1990 Land Rover 90, does any one know what axle this is, as I am pretty certain its not the original and want to make sure I order the right parts. I think the code is either 02L29870C or...

thank you all so much for the advice, the landy is a 1990 90, not a Defender but looks like one.

Hi, vehicle is going to be used for general road use, cant see us going seriously off roading in it in it

Thanks for you advice, this is a landy my wife bought as a "project" the plan is front and rear axle removal and refurb, all bushes, bearings, seals and ball joints to be changed, will change the brake lines too.

Hi, The shocks "look" to be OK, so if the shocks, are OK, is it perfectly OK to leave them on and just change the springs?

Hi, I am looking at taking off the 2inch lift kit, that was fitted to the Landy by the previous owner, and taking it back to stock. My question, do I just need to change shocks and springs, or do the turrets need replacing too? Regards Garry
