As mine are Britpart HD 2+ springs I will measure them this evening for you ! I do have a heavy roll cage on though so they may be slightly more compressed than on a standard 90 with no cage! Our blog - http://landytravels.com/

My Britpart springs measure 345mm on the vehicle.
Hope that helps. PS. to all. It isn't just Britpart that do Yellow painted springs. OME are also yellow and we have seen several cases of the powder coating on those peeling badly. Also, have some Britpart springs on the 100" that have been on ages and were second hand when we got them - they are not peeling much at all, except at the top where they obviously move about on the mounts. In fact the Britpart ones seem to keep their paint on them at least as long if not longer than the Genuine LR ones we've had! As with any parts, some batches are better than others, of all makes!

Measured both my springs today on mine and they are 300mm / 30cm so roughly that is 2" less than yours Pam so mine must be standard height. Surprising to me put there we go. Thank-you for that once again.

if my 130 was not needed for towing 3t and taking a tonne in the back then i would be all over this. i think they look unique and completely different from the everyday defender. |
