Default Atlantic British/Britpart springs

Looking to replace my 04 D2 OEM set up with HD Bilsteins and OEM quality springs. Does anyone have any experience with the D2 spring kit that AB sells? I believe that it is a Britpart item.

I do, been using them for about 7 months. No complaints. Just gets you back to stock ride height/feel.

A lot of people call Britpart, "****part." I don't have any experience with their suspension parts, but I would just get the genuine stock springs. They don't seem to be too pricey on LRdirect.com.

Pair them with some Bilsteins and you should be good to go.

Unless you are talking remote reservoir Bilsteins you might as well save your money and buy the TF shocks... If a stock ride is what you are looking for.

Not being rude here, but I've tried them all over the years and speak from experience.

If I were to buy springs and shocks today, I'd buy OME.

I have OME on one Rover, and Terrafirma on the other. The OME suspension rides like butter with a firm feel. The Terrafirma equipment has gotten harsh over the years, and actually drives me nuts now. Mine are both 2" lift kits though.

My problem with the regular bilsteins, besides price, is that they didn't last very long if you took them off pavement at all. 25k miles and I was hating them I recall.
