110 Spring rates
Had a 110 CSW as a courtesy vehicle this week. it certainly sits higher at the rear than mine (110 Utility), The CSW is 35" gnd to bottom of the wheel arch with White/Green/Green springs on the rear.

Dont have mine back yet but what colour springs are the Utilities and does anyone know the different rates or can point me in the direction of the LR spring rate chart please. Cheers

Was there an age difference, because didnt they change the springs on the 11my to give the weight for the N1 classification.

That could be it, i could look to see the change Mike

Just checked...standard duty to replace the heavy duty, hd avaliable on some until August 2010 - improved rear load on sd springs - to paraphrase the 3 bullets Mike
