Rear springs
2010 90 on standard springs. I'm getting lots of comments on how it looks like it's sitting on its ar$$e. Surely 6-7 bags of 15 Kg dog food shouldn't make such a difference???

They often look a bit arse down. Mine did so I put some Gwyn Lewis 1" spacers under the rear springs to get it all level, as I was happy with the ride, just not the look. Have got the spacers if you fancy fitting them, as I no longer use them.

Thanks Andy. I'm looking to fit a more HD spring as I can carry some weight at times. I was just surprised at how easy standard springs compress Rolling Eyes

Hd springs will cure the problem, but can be very harsh without load. I have no problem with truck being a bit bum down when loaded, but not whilst empty.
