If they have coloured bands on them then they should be...

driver side front- blue and green (nrc9446)
pass side front- blue and yellow (nrc9447)
standard rear..
driver side - blue and red (nrc9448)
pass side rear - yellow and white (nrc9449)

Heavy duty rear...

driver side - green, yellow and red (nrc9462)
pass side- green. yellow and white (nrc9463)

The springs are the britpart crap ones, 2 are longer ,no bands or marks on them. Also are Britpart ones handed please ? your help is needed and thanks for the replies ,Mark.:confused:
 
Right lets start from the beginning , I put britpart +2'' yellow springs and shocks on my 90 td5, rears are slightly taller than fronts , fronts are both the same height bit shorter than rears. the fronts and backs are NOT handed. I put these on about 3 months ago and drivers front is now sagging by about 13mm . been on to supplier ( mm4x4 who have been very good ) and they said britpart will replace fronts . I have to buy replacements and then get money back when I send old ones back . So i will have to strip and refit myself or pay to have it done either way I am really ****ed off. See my previous thread from the other day "lopsided 90" and decide then what springs to use.
originals are best.

there's a cheap set of springs on ebay currently that might get you out of trouble - that's typical Britpart service for you, spread the word

gcoo. let us know how you get on , ask if they pay towards fitting, in my game ,carpets , some manufactures pay towards fitting
 
Im seriously regretting putting them on, not sure if i want to replace them with new britpart ones , what other good alternatives,

im guna see if mm have the terrafirma springs back in stock and see if they can do me some sort of deal having my britparts back as thats the only reason i had the britpart springs in the first place as i needed to change my rear shock mounts on my rear axle and wasnt fitting my old springs back to the axle (thinking id kill to birs with one stone as i wanted to lift it anyway) looks like iv shot my self in the foot buying fooking britpart springs though and now caused myself triple the fooking work :mad:
