Sorry, side question here.
When you say nose weight I assume you mean the weight on the tow ball? What's the max. tow ball weight on your 110? I know on the Disco it's 150kg with the LR removable tow bar.

The DII is 250kg as is the ARB bar that i have on the defender. The defender one is also rated to 4t with a pintle hook... the LR tow pack was removed to have the Longranger tank fitted.
Hope that helps?

My OEM Disco II tow bar is only rated for 150kg. Wanna see a photo of it? That was my question.
But, you've kind of answered my question. So your tow bar is rated for 250kg. OK.
thats interesting... as mine is the standard towbar on the D2... and that is plated for 250kg... wonder if they changed it at any point... mines a 2002.. with SLS if that makes any odds?
i know the d1 was 150kg...
Thanks
Steve
Mine is MY2004 (first registered 2005). The tow bar is LR branded.
Might be more to do with local licensing laws. While the DII can haul 4 tonnes it is only rated for 3.5.
Mine is a removable hitch, is yours?
edit: oh, yeah got SLS too.
When you say removeable i assume you mean the haymen reece type? in which case yes... it is.
Nowhere on my D2 bar does it say 4t... unlike the D1's i have seen.. its just 3.5t.. but deffo says 250kg... but i will check for sure later! :D
Hayman Reece type, but not HR made ;)
Annnyway. Sorry about the diversion. :D
Sorry forgot to check the stamping last night... was busy doing the springs...
and....
WOW! the defender feels great! it hasnt lifted much.. will measure later to see what it has gone too... but i have gained at least 2" at the front bumpstops... as the fronts were sagged... feels good on road and over bumps and no vibrations! hoorah!
out of interest the springs i took out had coloured paint on them. the rears being purple yellow and the fronts just yellow... are these standard LR spings?
Now waiting to get nagged at when Rach tries to climb in...

Good to hear.
