Default self levelling tourer spring codes

been looking for this and failed. The duotone estate has self levelling suspension but is sitting high as I suspect someone put the wrong rear springs on. Can someone remind me of the right ones (also I assume that the fronts are the same as for a normal 2.5 v6 tourer) ta

Hi Dave

There's some on ebay:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROVER-75-T...-/300654220610

I've just bought some Kilen heavy duty springs for normal suspension, from Spring-Loaded. They seem very good quality, made in Sweden. Kilen do the self-levelling springs, too (which are shorter than standard springs) and they are available from Spring-Loaded.

http://www.spring-loaded.co.uk The Kilen part number is 69058.

And yes, the front springs are standard. The Kilen part number for the V6 2.5 Tourer is 29049.

Its the Nivomats that'll be the difficult parts to source, if and when.
One might be able to persuade Boge or Monroe (who also make them) for advice as to whether the originals can be refurbished, or one of their new products adapted, perhaps?

Regards

Robert

Cheers folks I will have a look into this; the existing springs have a fair amount of surface rust and virtually no powder coating left so I would like to change the lot
