Thread: The Height Difference between the Front & Rear of a 110 Defender Tdi300 Wagon?

Where are you taking the measurements from? Bumpstop to axle or ground to flare??

You need that Sill tank installed first than I say load it up to touring weight including bodies and go from there....

Having coils all round defiantly makes the car sit at different angle more so than leaf doing cars

The left to right heights I would play with positioning the load

The front to rear
- spacers would work but will your rear spring be too soft?
- maybe higher rated springs for the rear
- or installed air bag helpers which will allow you to level the car left to right and raise it a little
- I’ve installed air springs, not everybody cup of tea it the solution works for me.

You need that Sill tank installed first than I say load it up to touring weight including bodies and go from there.... This was what I had planned before doing anything but I was curious as to if there was a "standard height" difference Front to Back....

The left to right heights I would play with positioning the load --- The difference side to side "may" be fixed once the Sill Tank is installed......

The front to rear
- spacers would work but will your rear spring be too soft? --- Currently leaning towards this way but will see once vehicle is fully packed to actual work out spacer size req'd....
- maybe higher rated springs for the rear --- I actually ordered the highest Spring rated coil listed on the Les Richmond Website, the next heaviest was a Custom made coil......
