Landcruiser Springs

[MudSurfer]

If I were to buy Landcruiser springs for the Surf, what model should I be looking at??? Theres a load of choices on Milner's web site.

I have had new springs put on a few months ago, but really want the back to be a bit higher - I've also installed a Transit exhaust that is much smaller so doesn't keep getting battered offroad but I want the back an inch or so higher after the suspension lift I had done a while back...

What can I expect in terms of extra lift from L/C springs and what other considerations will I need to bear in mind by adding them?

Cheers..

hjd80 springs from milners.but you will also need vinces marvelous drop bracket kit.give him a pm.oh and longer shocks.this should give you a 5"lift on the rear.and you will also need to extend the rear flexy brake line.

So not being all that mechanically minded, can I keep the current ES3000s on - and what do I need to do to get +3 inches from them?

if yours are standard es3000's they wont be any good so you will need to order +3" es3000's

Are you going for the bodylift also.
Iput +2" es3000's on the front of mine but i should of gone +3" all round i think for that little bit more play on the front.I have taken the arb's off the front and rear also for that extra articulation but got a bit more bodyroll which i don't mind

and i give it some sh*t off road, with the rear end cocking a leg a lot and have never had a problem.

thats why i opted for the 9000s a bit more stiffer for extra support.

Nah - if you see the bumper and grille thread, there is a list of what I'm planning to do over the next couple of weeks. Body lift isn't in the plan, but picking the back up a little is. I'll probably put ES9000s on the back for the extra £2 each from ProComp, then I'll need to work out the brake lines from somewhere, and is there anything else before I get started?????

just put a spacer and longer bolt under the flexy hose where it is bolted onto the axle.
