rear springs

[j.hell]

i have s.a.s and was thinking of getting the rear springs off roughtrax which say they have a 2" lift which sounds good but how do i lift the front to match and is there anything else that needs to be done i.e brake lies e.t.c
thanks

No they fit strait on and give a instant 2" lift ....But if you carry alot of load in the back they will not last

The general rule is Milner standard springs , + 2" procomp es9000 shocks and 2" coil spacers..........OR if you want 5" of lift see bushwhacker

SAS = solid axle swap - one of the more extreme mods anyone can do to the front of their truck (lift = 6''ish)

If you have SAS why are you asking about front lift?

LC springs from Milners will give 3'' lift.

EDIT OOOOOOPS = sas = saggy ar5e syndrome - ever so sorry - me get back to the wine .............

thanks but i didn't want to spend to much doing it but i do need new springs though

[andrewlee31]

cheapest option is the 3inch rear lift 2inch front lift combo. its hdj80 landcruiser rear springs and you can wind the front torsion bars up 2inches for free!

44 quid +vat from milners



if you lengthen the springs good idea to put longer shocks on. i have +4 rears and +2 fronts. binned both anti roll bars for better articulation off road

[stormforce]

just go for the milners 20%stronger springs item no.004014 £44 per pair + p&p +vat

Go for milners 20% then as the springs are cheaper than roughtrax

And one of their better products

If you want a 3" lift on the rear, then you'll need Landcruiser springs from Milners @£44.

A pair of rear shocks from Procomp or TonyN @ £80.
A panhard rod and anti-rollbar drop brackets complete with various nuts and bolts from me @ £47.

No need to alter/lengthen any brake lines, and just adjust the torsion bars on the front.





If you don't want to be so radical, then a pair of up-rated springs from Milners @ £44. is all you need.
