You might have to phone them for the 110 prices as I can't see the 110 set there.

Also just to be sure check none of your chassis spring mounts or damper mounts have brpoken/snapped/bent as this happened with mine!

It just gave me an excuse to my wife for me to get a galvanised chassis though

I am trying to keep mine as standard looking as possible which is one of the main reasons I stayed away from the Britpart springs as they are yellow.

As for the Armstrong shocks and springs I have got, I have had no problems whatsoever. I fitted an Armstrong steering damper several months ago and it has been brilliant. I have had the other Armstrong parts on about a month so far but very pleased with them.

Just beware that most expensive shocks and springs are meant for off roading to ensure the suspension keeps as much ground clearance as possible. However if you don't go off road then they just make the ride rock solid on road for no point.

SUSPENSION KIT TERRAFIRMA MEDIUM DUTY 110/130 2 INCH LIFT (FOR VEHICLES FITTED WITH SOME ADDITIONAL WEIGHT SUCH AS A ROOF RACK AND WINCH AND BUMPER) KIT CONSISTS OF 4 X SPRINGS AND 4 X ALL TERRAIN SHOCKS - TF203 - Land Rover Parts & Range Rover Parts

I had some of those, good price, would do well off road, but they are a 2" lift so you would need to make extra mods, they don't do standard height. Just shows the kind of price you can look at.

Koni have been going a long time. Are more for the performance market really although we do kits if people wish...
£130min a side. I have always fitted quality to my cars unless there was no other choice at the time to get me out the ****.
