Frequently asked questions

What is the NRC9700GALV spring seat and where does it sit on the suspension?

The NRC9700GALV is a galvanised front spring seat that locates the base of the front coil spring on the axle, providing the lower mounting point for the spring and shock absorber. It fits Defender 1987 to 2016 (from VIN 7A000001 for 2007-on), Discovery 1 (VIN FA393361 to WA799999), and Range Rover Classic 1986 to 1994.

What's the difference between NRC9700GALV and the standard NRC9700?

NRC9700GALV is the galvanised version of the spring seat. The galvanising provides significantly better corrosion resistance than the plain steel NRC9700, making it the preferred choice for vehicles used in wet climates or off-road conditions where mud and water accelerate rusting.

How do front spring seats fail and when should they be replaced?

Spring seats corrode and pit over time, particularly at the spring contact point. A corroded seat can cause the spring to sit unevenly, increasing stress on the coil end and accelerating spring failure. Replace if pitting or distortion is found during suspension work, or when fitting new coil springs.
