I won't be getting saloon springs for sure.

Will 2 door saloon springs be about right for the cab? :?
Short memory??? :roll:

Get a life!

I didn't have a clue and was asking whether 2 door saloon springs would be okay for my cab, I didn't realise the cabs are much heavier. I was talking about disregarding 4 door saloon springs. I now know that I specifically need cab/touring springs & am on the hunt thank you very much :wink:

Well done to you :clap: winkeye

No, you will need either touring or cab springs as stated above.

Go for either H&R or Spax, they're both good and very reasonable from www.europerformance.co.uk.

If you go a 60mm drop you will have to get shorter shocks too. In my opinion 40mm is plenty though.
