One of the improvements Land Rover made on the Defender compared to its predecessor the Series 3 was the implementation of coil springs as standard to replace a leaf spring set up. This improved ride quality and axle articulation.
The purpose of a Land Rover Defender suspension is to absorb any bumps and vibrations from the terrain. Contributing to the Defender's handling on and off road and the braking which improves performance as well as safety. The durability and responsiveness of the suspension operates to keep all four wheels in contact with the ground, enabling the transmission of power through the wheels and 4x4 tyres to generate grip, traction and motion.
While a standard factory fitted Land Rover Defender suspension is very capable in many off road scenarios. For those looking to push themselves and their vehicles in more challenging settings will need to make modifications to the suspension set up. Lift kits and alterations can raise the body to allow bigger tyres to be fitted and deliver greater clearance over obstacles and inclines when off road.
Equally, if you regularly carry heavy loads or tow a trailer, adjusting your suspension set up will improve the handling and capability of your Defender, avoiding damage to other Land Rover parts like the rear axle.
Therefore, it is key to find the right combination with your suspension system and to keep your wheels in contact with the ground as much as possible. Depending upon your requirements the front and rear suspension is sometimes different and the two need to be tuned for optimum capability. Our vehicle technicians can advise you on the best set up and we can also fit your new suspension for you at our service and maintenance shop in Cannock, Staffordshire.
