I have a defender 130, it is now nearly 3 years old. When I bought it the suspension on the passenger side at the rear was about 25mm lower than the drivers side. The dealer I bought it from said that the front passenger side coil had gone and replaced it under warranty, as this was causing the rear drivers side to lift. When the coil was replaced it didn't make any difference and the Dealer said that is the way 130's are and showed me a new 130 which did the same thing, I was told that it was set so when the driver gets in the vehicle the vehicle levels out....not sure if i was caught hook line and sinker or not.

has any one else experienced this with 130's or 110's ?

BUB91 gets a lean up in carparks sometimes, always drivers side down, but doesnt get any lower when i get in,,,
you would think that it should sit flat at rest,,
how do they know how much you weigh?

Out of three sets of springs that I have bought for my 110 only the landrover ones were all the same length. The others were slightly taller for the drivers side.
