I have a set of OME HD, 751 and 762, from a D1. Fitted last fall and maybe 3k miles on them (spent a month in the body shop for collision work). She needed it shorter as it wouldn't fit in her parking garage!
New, they were $340.
Make me an offer!

[87xj95disco]

i do need new shocks so if i get the coils i need new ones
let me see if i can get some good used ones from MAR
when lyle goes down.
what do you want for them.
i have 120 cash right now from parting out my jeep if you want to wait
i can get you 175 hows that.
next question can you help me put them on and how much to do that.
thanks

Well, you won't NEED new shocks to use these springs, but if they have over 100k miles it's a good idea. And, there is a duplication of labor to fit the shocks at some other time.
With 2" taller springs, you'll lose some down travel, but that can be recovered with relocated upper shock mounts such as the ones sold by Expedition Exchange for the rear.
I wouldn't worry too much about the front travel as the geometry and swaybar will hold you up long before the shock travel is an issue.
Two other things: Often the studs holding the front shock towers will break, and the towers are known to rust, so it maybe a good idea to have some on hand before replacing the front shocks/springs. At the worst, you have to pay shipping to return them to whomever you purchased them from! 2) On the rear axle, it'll be a good idea to change the angle of the mounting bracket for the rear brake "tee" to accomodate all the new travel!
If we can put together a few other small jobs for other club members, we could do it on a shop day at my place- easier on a lift and with pneumatic assistance.
I can't do $175-these springs are like new.

the rover has 119,000 + on it so i does need new shocks
it looks like it still has the original shocks
im in no hurry to lift it yet have alot more things to worry about right now
so it sounds like i need more the just shock and coils when i do lift it.
i will let you know when im ready to do this
just looking around and getting ideas when the time does come i know
what im looking for and need.
thanks trevor

Not to go OT, but you parted out your Jeep? You've had that for a long time.
