Bad Springs bad shocks? Disco 2?
well im trying to decide if my shocks or springs may be bad and contributing to the bouncy feeling when around 30ish... when I turn corners at low speed the disco rocks back and forth a few times and I feel a little on a teeter toder... is this just inherent to these vehicles or is this bad springs? 03 Disco 92k

yeah... thats what Im thinking.. Im not sure if it supposed to do that some or not... by looking at truck is there any way to tell if those are good or bad? Nothing looks sagging that I can tell.... Id sure hate to replace good springs and shocks with good springs and shocks... lol my symptoms are... when turning to left I get a wheel going DDDDDDDD fort a second and occasionally when going over a speed pump slowly its kinda of THUNK THUNK... as if everything is really stiff... and of course maneuvering a turn get a quick see-saw action.. not a smooth fluid flow through the turn... since never driving a new one.. I dont know if thats normal or not... there is also a little slop on towing jet ski once

Also, yes I can do the work if I have time, but time is the biggest of my issues... money a little tight that prevents a retail install... What i cant see is any sag or Anything when its sitting (would I?) ... I do not have the sls so thats good ....

maybe i'll add a question here....
i'm redoing all the suspension bushings, links, tie rods and ball joints.
how do i know if my shocks and springs are still good? I don't know how long they have been on the vehicle.
should i fix everything else and then just drive it?
