2006 120 VX Petrol - ARB delux steel bar, warn 8000lb winch, Dual Batteries

tough dog adjustable (old Grey coils) Heavy Duty
Front 530
rear 600

I believe they have sagged a bit as they are old. I have only recently purchased the vehicle.

If anyone can suggest a good combination where I can get it up to 560-565 on the front with all these accessoriesb that would be great.

60-65mm front
25mm rear

Hmmm, seller of already lifted car, did give me extra springs, hard to tell what's what(2 pairs) and he gave me some spacers also. Might just try get some new springs for the rear. Although he said the rear was set up a bit softer for better articulation. I'll remeasure when it's low on fuel. I'd like to air bag the rear for towing the cvan and luggage. Will get longer&for heavier springs if I do.
Can anyone tell me free length of average 2" lift rear spring and stock ones front and rear, maybe I can work out what the hell I have as spares.

So using the data base thread on springs. What can I work out I need judging by front lift and accessories and not knowing what rear springs I have. So going of stock Spring length and weights, what would I need to get her to sit 70mm high in the rear. Has LPG tank instead of one petrol but that shouldn't make much difference, also has larger tyre on spare, but wouldn't amount to much either. Lots of weight in the front. I do want to tow my van and luggage though. Can get air bags for that of people recommend it to keep car flexible for four wheel driving but stiff for towing on road.
