Suspension

[Mark_Solesbury]

My 90 has got OME +2 springs and shocks.

Its starting to get a lean on it - its currently an inch lower on the passenger side with 3/4 tank of diesel in it - the rear nearside is the worst.

I have no idea how old the springs and dampers are - they look fairly old. The dampers are yellow still, but have some surface rust on them and dont leak, and the powder coating is comeing off on the springs.

Is it worth me spending money replacing the springs and dampers?

or just do the springs? Just the rear?

Any ideas welcome.

Although gas charged the dampers should have no noticeable effect of ride height, it may be you have some tired springs or it could be one of them has cracked near on end so that at a glance it looks ok and only drops in height a small amount. Its probably worth give the springs a thoruogh examination first and if you can remove one end of all the dampers from the axle or body and check they still have gas in them (ie can extend without assistance).
