Just a general question, is is suitable to put the coils in the rear of my Rangie into the front, thus raising front height, and then simply replacing the rear with raised height ones to suit. Would this considerably raise overall height and by how much, or am i best to by a complete set of coils at a raised height.
The vehicle is a 1985 4 door
Cheers

You'll have to have a look at what is in there. The rears should be heavier and taller than the front and give a fair lift.

Ok John 
Don,t want to hijack , was wondering
I have stock springs all round , The back is moving nicely but the front
isn,t moving as much as i would like it to in a ramp situ ,
Car is sitting a touch lower at the front ,
Do you guys think if i put the rears in the front and front in rears it might bring it closer ?
Is currentley 870kg front - 510kg rear with driver .

What is your setup? It is strange to be lighter in the rear. What springs are in it at the moment? Also the rear static spring length is intended to be longer than the front.
The front is limitted in articulation due to the design of the links. Easiest thing to do is try fitting a set of Sam's Slotted Bushes..... when he gets around to making some.

Front radias arm bushes are the limiting factor for the front .
Sams bushes wil go a long way to aleviating this.
