Spring Spacers and Bump Stops
« on: March 27, 2005, 18:48:35 »
I seem to remember someone here manufactures spring spacers, for a defender? Anybody remember who it was. Putting the winch on the defender has dropped the front end by about 1/2 an inch, would be nice to lift it up again.

Also I could do with extended bump stops, I think my new wheel my foul the wheel arches when off roading  :D

It must be a couple of months since I was over at Simmonites, I'll have to pay them a visit.

you could do what i did, and just get heavy duty springs for the front from Paddocks. £13 each. They accept between 50-100kgs more before they lower. :D

Mine are bearmach Yellows, and are supposely the same. But I measured the wheel arch height before and after the winch and it has definitely dropped. It always did slope forward so it's probably time to level it up abit.
