Thread: New shocks and springs for a '93 Disco

Hi Tank/Frank,

I actually asked 4wd direct about them and they didn't know 'em. I've put this week aside to get this sorted out one way or another so I'll be asking about Lovell's as quite a few people have had good things to say.

Cheers, Pete'

If 4WD direct don't know who Lovells springs are I wouldn't trust them to know anything about suspension, Lovells are the biggest manufacturer of automotive springs in Australia and supply most aftermarket companies who put their own brand on them, they also supply the Car manufacturers in Australia and overseas.
The biggest hurdle you have is removing the shocks, you can bet that the bottom bolts will be tighter than a fish's ar$ehole, (that's watertight) and you need some way of stopping the bottom half of the shock turning while you undo the nuts, use a pair of Stilsons or Vice Grips if you are not keeping the old shocks, I use an old modified oil filter strap wrench to hold the new shocks, otherwise an easy job, if the nuts aren't too tight, Regards Frank.
