Isuzu springs
guys I am looking for what ever rear springs you may have laying around.
The story is, i have been running the load leveler which has worked well. 1" longer shocks and a bit of a load on fuel water camping gear etc I have had very good and balanced articulation with lacking but OK road manners.
Now the LL has given up. I am not going to get it rebuilt although it worked well. i am hoping to improve its road manors at the cost of off road.
Now since I do not know what springs are in the rear, but i do know that they are not original county springs.
So I am hoping that some one has a known set of coils laying about that i could borrow or buy as a starting point.
Or let me know what you are running. i am not chasing lift and std height seems to be enough as i have never run into any problems because of the lack of height
AT REST
King Springs HD + Bilsteins all around -(carrying a bit of extra weight incl extra fuel tank, water tank etc etc)

Might be too high for you? But overall it is a very satisfactory smooth on- & off- road ride after removing the LL .
I've got the set of the standard County springs, if you're interested pm me (but the freight component would kill it for you).

Non LL LR 110s are 330lb/in in the rear. That may help for a starting point

did thay chang over the years, IE are the puma ones still 330.
i have noticed that when talking about springs the book says 85 - 92 then 92 - was there a change with the 300 tdi?
ForumSage
Not sure, The data I have is not new enough to count the Puma's. Im not 100% but I think my 98 110 Tdi was 330.Originally Posted by 85 county
If someone has a stock puma 110 and can measure the wire dia (no paint) and count the coils you could probably work it out? Or even compare it to an older 200/300tdi 110 spring and if they are the same dia and number of coils, then should be the same rate.

land rover spring specifications
Bit of info about spring rates that might help, I think that the fella that put this website info together is the "red90" fella on aulro.

well thats confused me.
i know the springs were changed by the last owner, when he put in the biger tank and droped the swaybar
i have 7.5 coils which look more like RR coils than 110 coils 150-180 kg, or am i reading it wrong?
ForumSage
cant be RR coils in the rear, the 110/130 are a larger dia than all other LR coils (RRC F&R, Disco 1 F&R, 90 F&R, 110/130 Front all same dia)
Going by that link/list, there are 3 different 110 rear coils:
#1, with load leveller = 180 lb/in
#2, With out load leveller/HD = 330 lb/in
#3 after vin XZ..... = progressive 270/420 lb/in

i think i will get the progressive puma springs and see what happens.
i see all these threads about people lifting there pumas, wonder what they do with the stock springs??

SubscriberI seem to recall that with a Boge Load leveller - if you put taller springs in then the load leveler will not work. It relies on a specific ride height to work correctly. In the old days there used to be special ball joints that gave you the required lift on the boge units, not seen them for years though.
