boys anyone knows the normal distance from axle to bump stop or the spring lenght (on the car)on a disco1 200tdi?

i fit new springs from bearmach and the nose looks a couple of cms higher than the rear and also leaning on one side (drivers side mine - passengers yours),the spring lenght is 31 on left front and rear and 29.4 on the right side front an rear.and the rear is also tooo soft and bounce a lot!
aaaaaaaa yea i fit them as said on the box,front went front and rears on the rear :armsup: :armsup:
did i mess trhe fronts with the rears or the guy who packed them for me!!?

fronts are also left and right springs check they are in the right way,as i can recall you can not put the rears in front visa versa as the spring seats are different

Incorrect, springs are all the same and will fit both front and rear, swap sides of the springs and check the free length of the front/ rear springs, fronts will be slightly shorter than rears.
