Hi all,

Like douglas, I also just got ome springs fitted (760 front, 762 rear) to my Aus '96 V8 & decided to leave my Koni shocks. So far its great. bit hard, but I'll warm to it! My question for all you learned ones is my stock springs were different heights before the lift on each side PS & DS. (generally PS was 20mm higher than DS) With my OME's fitted the ride height is almost the same both sides (+/- say 5mm) are there any implications of this? I think i've heard of it somewhere before as 'normal' (in my LR dictionary..THERE IS NO NORMAL!) Lastly, Ive also noticed the DS rear has a slight lean (very slight and only at the top 30% of the spring) between the spring mount on the axle and the mount on the chassis (maybe 5-10mm from vertical, end to end of spring). Has anyone any experience with this. is this anything to be concerned about?

Thaks
Roly

I you are happy with being "on the Level" then it is OK.

Curvature of coils springs is normal
