Welcome Lecat.

The rising rate front spring kits are almost ready and I have ordered a set. I have had a whole saga relating to ride height on a 2012 Plus 4 and have already had the springs changed under warranty. The ride height problem has been resolved but I am not entirely happy with the, now, rather firm ride. I have decided to fit aftermarket improved suspension to resolve both problems.

Send me a PM with your email address and I will send you all the information I have.

I will listen for the squeak - what kind of grease and what method do you use when greasing your bushings?

I used moly grease. My Roadster didn't have the oiler, just a single grease nipple on each side. The current Roadster has 2 nipples on each side, one at the top of the king pin & one on the hub, so more work to service this one innocent
I've also fitted gaiters over the springs to keep some of the weather off the king pins.

I use castrol cl grease as it is designed to be water resistant & for older style suspension systems.
