Default ideal supensions for 2006 LR

Hi guys, just wanna get your opinion on suspension lifts. What do most of you use? Thinking of air-to-coil
spring kit. Thanks!

Leave it alone, spring kits ride like crap, go to the section specific to your vehicle and ask

Helps if you post the vehicle, lr3? Range rover?

It's a 2006 Land Rover LR3 Discovery III. I'd like to know what others here may be using.

Most people that do the coil conversion are unhappy. The truck sits lower and cannot handle the extra weight of loaded up truck.

i choose the lift spacers on my last 110 , i'm going to do the same on my 90 , the reason is , if you are happy with the way your LR sits as it is now ( pitch angle ), and you change the spring hoping to get the same pitch , but 2 inches higher , it may not be the case always due to additional winch , or hood mounted spare tyre etc etc . with the spacer blocks , you actually remain with the same pitch and you are 2 inches higher ..

Thank you for bringing up this issue, I do want to maintain the pitch angle. From the looks of it (2 experienced user feed backs, at least), lift spacers might be a better option. I'll look into those, thank you for the input.
