Why?
Just get the kit for a Range Rover classic. Paddocks and all the regular suppliers do the kit with or without shocks, all reasonably priced.
Thank you
Thank you for this considered insight
It's a valid question. Are we not supposed to ask why?
The answer to your question why is.....to make it handle better on the road

When I had my Classics I fitted police spec springs and dampers and the handling was vastly improved,no need for lowering IMO.
I have lowered springs fitted to mine and It vastly improves the handling. It also gives it a better stance and will have that pointed down at the front look.
Go for it.
I fitted those and they lasted two days, horrible ride and very very hard.When I had my Classics I fitted police spec springs and dampers and the handling was vastly improved,no need for lowering IMO.

Each to his own; but in no way can a Classic be described as a performance car.Have you watched the vids. demonstrating how easily they roll-over?
Thank you for the answers and opinions so far. Just to point out I am still awaiting an answer to my question (if anyone knows) which is:-
" I see there is a Bilstein kit (springs and shocks) 2" lowering for a Defender, would this fit my RRC? I am not sure on compatibility"
I have posted the item below in case anyone has similar experience.

Most people on LR forums go the other way - lift not lower - & if there's nothing coming up when you use the 'Search' box then possibly no-on on here has done it with that kit.
On the basis that they sell them so presumably people have bought from them what did the sellers of that kit tell you when you asked them?

springs would fit.
As these are designed for a lighter vehicle they may drop lower.
Shocks…. You need to check the ends & how they fit to your chassis. Later LR are different to RR.
To answer your question, yes the springs will fit but check the shock bottom mountings are the same as yours. As I said earlier why are you not getting specific kits for a Range Rover Classic?
That kit also is overpriced.
You're welcome. HTH.

Google is your friend. Even though you're lowering a RRC.
