    Smile Disco 1, 3" raised springs.....help!!!

    Good morning all!! im just having trouble finding a set of 3" heavy duty coils for my '98 v8 disco1, im currently running 50mmm raised coils with 1" spacers ( i have 65 mm chassis lift and 35" tyres) ,but due to lots of off road use the fronts have sagged and I also have installed a bar and winch and gas tank.
    Does anyone know where i can get a good set of 3" raised h/d coils from Australia at a reasonable price??? help on this topic would be greatly appreciated as im not able to find more than 2" raised at the moment.....
    I understand legalities and practicality issues with such a high lift but i want to get these springs asap,Cheers,Ramon (discologist) (0411964752)

    I've heard good reports about Shane and his springs, so you will probably be another happy customer. I have bought other stuff from him and obtained good service and price.

    Cruiser front springs are same diameter as Disco front and rear springs, but greater free height (hence ~3" lift). At one end the coil is smaller diameter, but fit the lower spring seats when they are flipped over (held in place by 2 screws).

    Cruiser rear springs are larger diameter and won't fit Discos.
