Definitely Nivomats. I fitted them but it's not like you can fit them incorrectly. Are they supposed to come up to full height with maybe 150-180kg on the towball?

Thanks for the info. Mine is a diesel Laredo.
Before the lift my front sat at 470mm and rear at 512 so I assume my front was sagging.
For $50 I think I'll grab the springs and hope for the best. :)
