hullhunter 219 Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 nice. how much body lift you put on it. was there much f*****g about like did you have to extend anything? what else have you done to it? shocks, spacers, or out like that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
samearl14 11 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I did 2 inch body lift from xpajun, rear springs from a lwb shogun (that gives around 2 inchs lift at the back as well) and then cranked up the front torsion bars to match. Only things that needed doing were undo a bracket on the fuel filler pipe, Trim the rad fan cowling, undo the brackets on the solid PAS pipes, and cut a little notch out of the centre console to allow the 4wd lever to go back into 2wd. But any higher than a 2 inch body lift and youve got to start extending brake pipes etc. Standard shocks dont present any problems but extended ones are obviously going to let you get the most out of the suspension lift, so thats next on my list after christmas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
