    Fronts yes, Rears no. they have a larger diameter coil in the rear of a defender(6in vs a 5in i think??)

    Yep, i beleive it should work ok, as long as its a D1?
    We setup a friends rangie using the rear springs in the front and defender front 2in lift springs in the rear, it sat pretty level and got a good all round 2in lift, we also used OME shocks off a defender. Cheap lift as it was all free stuff.

    Yep the shock mounts are different on the D2, fronts are eye to bar pin type as apposed to pin to pin and rears are eye to eye instead of eye to pin. Your best bet would be to go buy some procomps or something if you want to save some $$$ there is a guy i have been trying to get some shocks off myself who is doing some good deals on procomps at about 105-110 a shock
