Has anyone ever put stock D90 springs on their Disco? Effect?

p.s. Hopefuly the first two times I tried to post this will quickly sink to the bottom.

Barret, I would take into account several things. First, compare the weight of the vehicles, length of spring, payload, etc. Then, I would look at the differing results on lift that installing the same OME springs has on both vehicles. I am not an OME expert, but if the springs lift a D90 less than a Disco then I would say you would get some lift out of the D90 spring. However, my first intuition would be that the D90 spring would make a Disco ride quite soft and not net you much if any lift, as well as decrease you load and towing capacity. Like i said, I am not an expert but this is what first occured to me when thinking about this.
