I’m back
i have included 2 pics the 1st one is before the lift kit and the 2nd one is after the lift kit was fitted.it seems to sit way higher at the back than the front and i dont know why.it dont look quite as back parked up on the grass but on level tarmac it looks like it sits about 2" higher at the back.is it sposed to be like that?

or ya could have yer springs on back to front....:D






i'v never done that you understand....:rolleyes:
 
My Terra Firma kit had different length springs for N/S and O/S (O/S a bit longer) and different firmness for front and rear. All the springs were marked (NSF, OSF, NSR, OSR).
When fitted correctly and with a full fuel tank and the driver seated, it should sit level.
 
as far as i can remember there bearmach springs there were just two for the back and two for the front..not sure on left and right..whats your opinion does it sit right?..
i even towed a trailer sat eve that i use for mobile dj so it was full of kit and even with that on that back didnt come down much
 
This was mine after I fitted the rear +2" springs and before I fitted the front ones. Looks a bit like yours dunnit?

mm sure does maybe its right then..i spose bloody great winch and bumper on front dont help..
i did think about putting a spacer on the mount but maybe i might just leave it.
 
but it is supposed to be a 2" lift kit and i would have thought they would have matched the springs so it sat level bit dissappointed with how it looks but the handling is good

Click to expand...

how heavy is your winch? i know mine makes a difference as it nearly 70kgs, thas why i put hd springs on the front
 
good point.it did take two of us to lift the winch and bumper in place..i take the point about heavy duty springs but the guy in the shop was told what i had on the motor and he sold the the right kit apparantly.

but if you look at pic before the lift kit with standard kit it didnt sit that much lower at the front and it had the winch on.
so maybe they havent given me the correct springs?
 
springs on the wrong way, or there v8 springs, or they aint heavy duty and wont take the weight of a winch and bumper.
 
if they have, amke sure yer get a recipt for fitment as you can get the cost of that back to pay for your time.
