Thread: d2 suspension q's

I can't answer your q"s about the springs and shocks but if you've had a 2" lift I'd suggest that you check the clearance between your front drive shaft and the chassis cross member with the wheels at full extension (droop).
I was under one a few days ago and they were touching. There is a fix by fitting a couple of spacers between the chaccis and the cross member.
This seems to be something that people overlook when altering suspension set-up.

fair enough. ill check it out.
with a lift kit though isnt it really just altering the static sag of the suspension? whereas u might have had 150mm compression travel and 100mm down travel its now 200comp and 50down.

Exactly right. You shouldn't have a problem touching unless the shocks are longer.

PM Slunnie about this, he's solved the crossmember problem, has longer shocks, and an engineering certificate passing it all.

King Springs are yellow. I haven't got them on my Disco, but I fitted a full set to our Commodore and have always used them for my circuit cars. They are a very good spring and the fact that they are made locally (to me anyway) means they can be customised to suit specific requirements. Can't help with the shocks.
