						SupporterHi All
My 130 C/C has sagged in the front end (bulbar, winch etc). I need 20mm to get back to factory height.
Spring recommendations would be gratefully accepted.
Thanks,
Michael

Cheers, Billy.
Keeping it simple is complicated.

						SupporterMy 110 was a bit down at the front after bull bar and winch. Fitted HD110 (=SD130) springs, very happy with the result
for what it worth i'd contact Dobinsons or call APT and see if you can get a +1" coil (+ 1" free length) at the factory rate. From my experience the HD options use a significant increase in rate to restore height but work on the same (+/-) free length as factory. If they base their measurements on a 110 you end up with shorter free length compared to the D130 standard coil. So you end up with a stiff front end and not necessarily restoring the height of the 130. Been there done that. Custom coils are about $300 (standard are about $220). The difference in outlay is the cost of a fancy case of beer or a bottle of Hendricks Gin.

						SupporterI've contacted Ben at APT. I have several of his products, which are very well made, so l expect his springs to be no different.
He is working on a solution. I'll post what he comes with.
Thanks all.

I've got a 90 with all that on the front. Fitted raised height standard duty Lovells all round. It's level @35mm higher than standard. Got Billies too. Handles great and comfy as.

						SupporterI have been running EFS +40mm for a while in my TD5 130, I was running another brand in my other Puma 130 DC, and was never really happy with it particularly as 80% of my driving is on crap dirt roads or off road.. I just fitted last week a new set of EFS springs to the front of the same ute and it is fantastic, its firm but never bottoms out as before and holds the front end regardless of the speed or road condition..Ill shoot through a photo when I get a chance..Spring model was 107HDE.
