Hello all, i have a problem (dont we all). Anyways, i have a new series 2a chassis and also purchased new front and rear springs (both 11 leaf). I bought new front shocks and went to fit but, alas to my dismay they seem to be approx 30mm too short on full extent!! Whats my problem (dont go there) . The shocks i bought are from rimmers, part no RTC4234P. Any help greatly appreciated.
Petrol 9, diesel and mil. 11 as far as I know.
I, m just rebuilding another ex mil 109 with the associated 2" lift and the 1 ton shocks fit on just fine with no compression.
I think the part you need is RTC4231 then, these are 50mm longer I think. They are what I have on mine.
Don't compress the springs to get the others on cos you'll knacker them with all that force from a new pair of springs. Even unloaded the shocks ought to slide on ok.
Or get these!https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rov...tem2f38b8b1f2:g:slYAAOSwH9RdwG7k&LH_Auction=1
