who if any1 makes 5 abd 6 inch lifted springs for discoes? and how much as my reset ones ahe started sagging

Do you mean off the shelf or customs?

King and Lovells both have 4" springs. The only ones that I know of are the Rovertym ones in the states.

how tall are your current springs? if you swap them for new ones i may be intrested in your old ones

they are 5.5 inch springs but have sagged a fair bit

I spoke with Dobinsons 6 months ago told them exactly what i wanted ... the weight of the vehicle , the weight of the gear we take away ...

they custom wound up our springs , $275 a pair ...$60 delivered to my door .
A mate saw mine rang them a few weeks later and had 6 inch customs wound up , don't quote me but he paid around $320 a pair and $60 delivery .

Hope this helps

how much you recon there saged? i only realy need 2 or 3 inch lift and dont carry alot of shit around

Too much 5 or 6 inch raise what you need to change brake line extra 6 inch and be warning A frame not enough reach and need modification A frame more reach? Try contact snakeracing might have or LRA in Melbourne? Any comment?

apparntly standard 80 series cruiser front springs put in the front of a disco will give it 3" of lift, so if you buy a 2" or 3" lifted 80 series cruiser spring you will have 5"-6" of lift

im just trying to find out what goes in the rear to equal out the front

No, nobody makes a spring that big, just work out what spring rate you want, and lovell's will make customs

not for the rover clough.nissan/toyota yes lol

I've had Lovells make a few springs and their turn around is stupidly long and they cost more. I would try Browns in Vic, King in QLD or somebody else.

i likethe sounds of 80s springs might take a ride to climax and measure up

what lower spring platforms do you have on your nissan diffs? if there rover you will have to mod them.
it is only 80 series front springs that fit the upper coil tower of rangies an disco's.

80 series are a little snug over a gq mount but they do fit.

will give em ago are the 80 rear springs the same diameter or larger?

80 rears are a larger diameter somthing like gq rears
if you go 80 series springs you will need 4 front springs. be carful will climax springs somtime they leave a little to desired in the side to side balance when i put them in my ute they sat heaps hiegher on drives side somthing like 45mm i would use kings comfort rated 2 inch lift but will depend on the height that you are after.
bowers usually have these in stock.

dino is now using a different brand we just got a set from him and were happy as a part time converted disco in mud with them the blue max ones and the old ironman ones were crap so he has sorted that out

would have been a long time ago that i was there but he had his own climax springs i think that he was just trying them at that stage be anyway i got some lovells off him and couldn't be happier well as happy as i can be with a modded car.

a bit off the 5" lift topic but are these any good?
