United Kingdom 2006 Defender 110 Td5 SW Epsom Green
On my 110, i have an 8274 winch, steering guard (bolted to chassis), a BRB nudgebar (blummin' heavy!), and a full external cage on the 110, so it's quite lardy.


I had the HD (aka 90 rears) on the front and it still smacked the bump stops at every pothole, and didn't sit very high (like you, i don't want a lift, just to sit at factory height maybe +1" max)

So i tried some 90 HD rears in the front. with all the weight, it sits more or less factory height now (well, "more" not less... think there's 9cm between the bumpstop and axle), and handling is much improved.


Nice free upgrade as I had the HD springs in the garage anyway! Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
