Default Terrafirma HD?

It's been a while but the suspension has sagged to the point where my dad has finally given in. We are going with the Terrafirma +2" but I have one question. The only other mod on presently is a TJM bull bar and I know it's lighter than the ARB but should I get HD front and rear? That's what my mechanic suggested.

Thanks,
Chris

Do you have a winch in the TJM bar? If not you can go with either MD or HD. I know of a few people running HD springs for the additional lift and do not have a winch.

No winch, but the one thing I'm worried about is the truck sloping forward because the extra weight in the front do you think I should do HD front and MD rear?

I suppose you could, generally springs are designed to give the same spring rate all the way around(not lb for lb, but relative to the weight).

Sounds like we'll probably end up just getting HD all around because it comes as a kit from Rovers North. Thanks for the help

You'll regret HD all the way around. Much too harsh for just a bumper. Go MD if you go Terrafirma

Do you own a D2 with HD all around?
