2 inch lift?
« on: January 15, 2008, 22:48:20 »
I have A bit of a Dilemma on my Hands?

I would like to Lift the Truck by Obviously 2 ins?


However i have here 2 Brand New Scorpion Range Rover Standard H/D Rear Springs Plus 50%

Which i was thinking on Fitting to the Front to Sort out the Weight of my Winch and Winch Bumper... Which in Theory should give me a Nearly 2ins extra on the Front?

Am i Correct?

But now i am Confused on what to Stick in the Back?
Should i Fit Just Normal Back + 2 inch Springs?

To make it Clearer? As Fog? to me that is?

the best thing to do it to ring colin at scorpion and ask him what's spring rate on the springs you have
then we can advise here
as really its a guessing game
ideally you want +2 springs with a 200 or 210 lbft spring rate then a 220lbft on the rear

i would say your springs are around 320LBft as a rough guess going by normal spring rates
this would be way way way to hard for the 90, it would give it a 4 inch lift  :P
