It's almost like a card I got once.

I thinked and thinked and thought and thunk
But still came up with the same old bunk!

I'm looking for the standard height of a coil sprung Disco 3.

Measurement from the centre of the wheel to the bottom of the guard please, this takes out any variation in tyre size.

My vehicle has bull bar and winch, spare tyre carrier and 100 litre long range tank so my heights will be different, certainly the weights will be.

I will put on raised springs if it hasn't already been done.

Cheers

I don't know but my best guess is the same as the air suspended D3 in normal mode. Not sure what level that is but I can try take a measurement over the weekend for you.

Have you looked on disco3uk? There may be someone on there who can help, from memory there's a few coil sprung D3s there.

Sorry I can't help any more than that!

All I've found is a coil-sprung D4's minimum ground clearance is 185 mm whereas with air suspension the off-road height minimum clearance is 240 mm. As D3/D4 off-road height is 55 mm above normal height, the D4 coil version has the same minimum clearance as air at normal height.
