should they have the extended shackles?
it only has them on the back so im guessing a PO mod to hide sagging springs, but check before replacing them

Not on mine. They are standard I believe.

Extended ones were only fitted to the 1 ton from factory weren't they?

Hi my stage one X NZ army is fitted with extended spring hangers, the main chassis mounts are not extended, it gives the Rover a nice ride hight at the rear. I have also fitted parabolic springs, which has been a worth while job. Cheers Dave
