Good afternoon all - advice please on 2 topics
Vehicle: 1987 Defender 110 SW, rear salisbury axle on drums + spacers to run Deep dish alloys, currently running Terrafirma big bores standard height + Britpart yellow HD springs
1. I want to install front anti roll bars:
I know I need to weld brackets on chassis as well as axle. My specialist can do this. Fine
AND I also want to install a heavy duty track rod guard (see visual on eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace)
And i am installing twin shocks at the front!
Question: Does any of you know if the track rod guard will interfer or foul the front anti roll bars
2. I want to install twin rear shocks
I am told that on the brackets may make the second shock interfere with the wheel and spacers are needed. As I have spacers already installed to allow using more modern wheels- will that be a problem?
3. Shocks set up
Vehicle has front / rear Terrafirma big bores standard height + Britpart yellow HD springs + Polybushes all around (excl. the shocks as big bores have non-standard bush size). The vehicle still rolls excessively when driving on road...unacceptable. I am told Britpart springs are not good quality...so which standard Height HD spring I should go for - i need a firm road drive...
As usual - any help gratefully received.
Thanks all!
