Default UR Suspension

Daft question alert!!! I'd like to replace the springs and dampers on my 1981 UR. Does anyone know what I can replace them with? I can only find springs for URs 1984 onwards which would lower the car which I'd like to avoid if possible, if only to preserve originality. Grateful if anyone has any ideas.

Cheers.

speak to pete reeve at quattrocorner, a supension group buy elsewhere turned into a bit of a cock up in the long run

I understand wherev john is coming from on this one. Speak to pete Reeve, he can supply Koni sport dampers and H&R Springs to match. A very popular combination thats tried and tested on the URQ
