Hi Guys,
Wonder if anyone can help me out. Just had a factory recall about the Upper ball joint and control arms on my 2002 Petrol Liberty. The long and short of it is that they are going to fit new UCA's free of charge so I thought about getting them to swap the springs while they are out. My question is - Bearing in mind my 2002 is prelowered - Do I go for factory springs or would the diesel ones make it sit a bit higher. (Or would the factory replacement ones be shorter now to make them sit a bit lower?) My Jeep has got nearly 70k miles on so I guess the front springs will be absolutely knackered even though it sits quite well. I would just like another inch or so of height and can't afford the full lift kit etc and we struggle to get ome stuff over here. Been on the internet all afternoon and cant find anything in the uk! Unless another brit knows somewhere? Thanks Guys, Hope I get more answers than my spotlight question did a few lines down!! Hehe :smokin:

You could get OME springs from JBA, he ships worldwide. You'd probably have to pay VAT when they arrive, on top of the shipping. I checked prices for OME springs in NZ and it was cheaper to buy them from JBA and pay the shipping and tax to Mexico, than pick them up whilst I was in NZ. Surprising since they are made in Australia.

Cheers Mangate,

I will have a look on their website and get some prices for shipping etc. Steve :smokin:
