Suspension kit?

sworks · 10th March 2024, 13:02

Following on from the rear suspension arm post I’m making a list of jobs on the 75 for when the weather gets better. I’m now thinking of overhauling the suspension and brakes in general. Rear springs were replaced when the arms were changed last time with the correct ones from Rimmer brothers but the front are original. I’ve lost the photos I had of the sticker under the seat which has now faded and the colours on the springs due to changing phones multiple times. The car has the optional suspension package from the factory and sits very low for a Rover. Seeing as the car is 19 years old I want to change the shock absorbers and springs as it’s only a matter of time until a front spring breaks seeing as they are original. I’m guessing I could go the MG ZTT route but wondered if anyone had other options as I’m a bit out of touch with 75 parts at the moment. A full kit ready to bolt on would be nice and happy to mix and match parts but the car needs to sit lower than standard as it’s always been like this.

I vaguely remember the suspension chart being uploaded by someone in the past but if I remember correctly when I had the info on my car it was different but my memory isn’t as good as I used to be…..
Thanks

Thanks Ronnie, I’ve just been searching and found this thread from when I was looking last time. It seems it didn’t make sence back then either
