Shocks!











  • I got my springs and fitted the shocks to the front. They are a really nice bit of kit.


The rears were a little bit more tricky as i didn't really think it through when ordering the shocks. I was using the old Spax shocks as a template/guide but i should have got the damper adjuster fitted 90 degree's from where they are to make it easier to adjust. Also the thrust washers at either end of the bottom pin had to be filed down to fit. other than that it went ok!

NOTE: I changed my spings on the rear from 180 lbs to 220 lbs as i could not acheive the correct ride height . The 350 lbs springs on the front are perfect for my rover V8.
