    D110 - HD Front Springs

    G'day Guys,

    Well my MY02 D110 had the usual front end droop - like a IFS Tojo!!! I dont want to go extreme with this car as its my tourer, so took the advice of D110V8 / Clarkie etc and replaced them with a genuine D110 HD spring.

    LR Part numbers are NRC9448 & NRC9449 - these are a HD for D110s or standard for D130s

    NRC9448 is 15.31" and NRC9448 is 14.80" according to the records and both have a spring rate of 225lbs - with the slightly longer spring being the drivers side.

    Here we are before:

    the HD springs have a higher rating - so should be fine for the next couple of years. The Standard springs are about 1" shorter and lighter spring rates - they dont like bullbars / winces etc.

    Yup about $130 for the pair and have been used for a while by others and they still rate them.
