Put 400,000kg in mine looks ok

 

WOW thats some weight lol!

Sorry couldnt resist!

 

Yes and more in the trailer Clarkson said it will be fine.

Check out Milner offroad and see what they have, failing that look locally and see if you can find someone that can just put an extra leaf on the original springs, a mate of mine had that done a while back and it's made the world of difference

HI JOSE get a 110/130 :thumbup1:they take more weight :thumbup1:jon

 

The landy might take more weight but I probably would have broken down on the way to delivering the logs Jon

Put a coil spring from a car between the bump stops. Have them on mine works a treat when unloaded not rock hard when loaded does not drop too far. Put 400,000kg in mine looks ok. The heater works and you dont need to open the window to drive it.

 

Great idea mate , I'm guessing mini springs would be good,

Yes I agree, even loaded down I got there and back, ( with the window closed& heater on )

I am not sure what they use but they need to be at least as wide as the bump stops. If I get a minute do you want a pic. I would guess escort springs would be better. The good thing about it is they dont do alot until you have some weight on. Proper heavy duty springs make the back end rock hard when empty
