Thread: lifted springs for series landrover?

If you've got the cash - the old TI Console company in the Netherlands (now a different name) make parabolics.
Heystee Automotive BV

or

get a set of longer brake lines and go spring-over-axle.

The easiest and cheapest way is to get your existing springs reset for more camber - Bayside Springs can do it.

However - bear in mind that the more lift/camber you have in your springs, the less flex you will have.

I thought King Springs had a part number for them. Likewise they will do customs if need be.

thanks guys for your help, kings didnt seem interested and reckon a custom set would be around $1100 a pair!!

You can also get Rocky-Mountain Parabolics from Canada and I thought FWD in Brisbane were the agents.

Roverparts+ do Britpart parabolics. Modern Motors do Rocky Mountain.
Try Dobinsons in Rockhampton too. Kings tend to only be interested in run of the mill stuff

What about a reset?

Dont even think about a cold reset! Spring steel is heat treated and forged. This aligns the molecules in a certain way. Flexing the spring over time, causes those molecules to change their pattern. Resetting will only last a short time and will possibly break a leaf. If they are to be reset they need to be heat treated again. I know its not a very accurate description of how it all works but metallurgy is very complicated! Its probably cheaper to buy new springs.
