Cool ... your way ahead of me <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />




Well just another update a few more questions for you guys.
I'm waiting on some spacers from Everet but as I know these custom made items take time... and unfortunately I'm running out of time (I start my new job in another state at the end of next month) and I have already paid for the rear springs and shocks to be fitted. If Everet is unable to get the spacers to me soon I will have to ask the suspension shop to make me some front springs aswell so i don't lose my money (these things are made to order so no refunds <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> ). I'm worried if I do need to get the longer front springs ( i think I'll only end up with approx 1 inch of movement/articulation) the suspension shop doesn't recommend this... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
has anyone fitted longer springs to the original front strut or the same size KYB? If so any probs?

Secondly, once I get thsi shorted I'm looking to get some body spacers fitted in Melb... I see that Roger Brown (I think) sells these...anybody know if they fit on a longbody sporty? If so...how easy are they to install, i read the instrct and it says that you should replace the nuts on the rear then do the front...but wouldn't that bend the thread/bolts or worse break it as you lift the front? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

This guy http://www.4wheelnoffroad.com/04body.html didn't replace any of the nuts as he went along...I would og thought this to be the best way as to not break or bend the threads/bolts.

Anyway any feedback would be appreciated.


HI Fourskia,

I senty an inquiry in early FEB to them regarding the body lift as I wanted to get a two inch as it is the max legal without running into major probs in AUS. (No airbag in mine <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" />)

Due to the bolt design they only make either the 1 3/8 I think the size is and the 3 inch lift.

If you have airbags have fun getting it engineered without lots of research.
Damkia is running a two inch in his but I believe he had the captive bolts removed from the body and inserted new ones? His is a big bum as well.

Cheers, Chris
