Blacksheep, I see from your pictures you tow a boat, do the Alive springs make for as good a tow as the heavy duty springs fitted to a hardtop?
I also have a hard top and when the boat or horse trailer is hitched up the ride is excellent when I’m not towing it’s not so excellent Rolling with laughter 2015 HT XS 90

I have found no difference when towing using the alive springs compared to standard, but they have transformed it for general use, reduced the crashing and banging, however mine is a van, so the more refined vehicles might not see such a change. Time is precious, waste it wisely...

Mines a hardtop too and I certainly notice the difference from the standard suspension on my previous defenders an SVX and before that an XS compared to the hardtop and I wondered if the Alive springs would make a noticeable difference from the standard HT springs currently fitted? 2015 HT XS 90

Alive springs made a huge improvement to my Puma Landmark 90 and after 12 months use I would thoroughly recommend Thumbs Up 1983 Series 3 Pick up in Marine Blue

I notice on their website they suggest B6 dampers and anti-roll bar, did you have these fitted as well ?

Maybe £50 a wheel. Depends on garage and rates.

My guess two hours Labour.
