  • Lovell Coils and Lovell's Shocks ??

    Guys.....

    I'm in the process (like many I guess) of looking for a suspension setup for our new 150s. We will be having a ARB Steel Bar fitted + Dual Batteries with the possibility in the future of a electric winch (3>4yrs time)

    I've been looking at the Lovells Kit of Lovells Coils and Shocks with the following Codes:

    TFR118 (Front Coils)
    TRR119 (Rear Coils)

    64610087F - (Front Struts)
    64612489 - (Rear Shocks)
    (I believe these Shocks/struts are rebuidable..... not that, that means much)

    My question has anybody experienced these and should I be looking at the HD Coils Front and Rear for the accessories fitted + we will be using the Car to tow a 16" semi Offroad Van? I do want a minimum of a 50mm lift as well.The car will be driven by the missus during the week ferrying the kids around, etc...... so I have to consider the ride as well

    Any help/advise will be great

    cheers..

      Yeah ... I'm happy with the ride, etc. A little more lift would've been good but what's an extra 10mm or so..... My measurements are as listed below:

      LHS: Bottom of Rim to Guard 786mm (Rear) // 755mm (Front)
      RHS: Bottom of Rim to Guard: 786mm (Rear) // 760mm (Front)

      Suspension height measurement - STD with ARB Bullbar installed:
      LHS: Bottom of Rim to Guard 786mm (Rear) // 745mm (Front)
      RHS: Bottom of Rim to Guard: 786mm (Rear) // 745mm (Front)

      Suspension height measurement - with 2" LOVELLS SUSPENSION with ARB Bullbar installed:
      LHS: Bottom of Rim to Guard 830mm (Rear) // 775mm (Front)
