Milner Rear Springs + saggy front end

[Captain Salty Crack]

Hi Gents,

No.1

Looking to do a lift on my truck. Its an idel time as the shocks are all knackered. I have ordered longer Rough Country shocks and now looking for some 2" lift springs. Terranosaurus is no longer doing any so I have just a couple of options.

1.) Custom made pair which will give a 2" lift. £115.00 + VAT + Delivery

2.) As et of Milners rear springs + 20% stronger £47.00 + delivery.

Just wondered if anyone had tried the Milners springs and to what effect they have.

I am currently running on 30/9.5/15 and want to run 32/10.5/15, at the same time adding winch bumper and winch so aiming to only adjust torsion bars once.

No.2

Front end does not seem right, sagging to the left. When looking under neath both sides of the suspension seem very low, next to know travel. The distance between the arm and lower bump stop is only about 10mm. Should I have more than this? and will I have issue when I adjust the torsion bars to match rear lift?

advice will much appreciated

hi got a set fitted from milners 20% stronger meant they were about 1 to 2 inch taller than original springs bit of swearing to get on but no complaints

Those 20% stronger springs must be well hard They shouldn't actually be any taller, or give you any LIFT other than not sagging as much under load or an old worn out spring. BUT they will hold a load without compressing as much, consequentially giving a real hard ride off road, especially on a swb
Some s/h lwb springs will give about an 1" of lift on a swb and then use some spacers to get you an extra bit of lift, :thumbs

Just put some milners springs on the rear of the Troll. Simple to fit and lifted it by about 3inches back to where it should be 75 inc VAT and delivery.
Milners only do std height 20% uprated but mine had original springs from 1990 so std height was a great improvement
