Aye I wouldn't consider this on mine at all, 4" is a long way up! (would still like to see if anyones done it though, be interesting to see what bit broke first!)
Not so sure if I want / need to lift mine at all, might do a body lift but tbh it goes where I want it to.[/quote]

probably why most use lwb springs on there swb...
even the y60's on a lwb will only look right with 33's on. |

fenton that looks ace mate, I wish i had one of those bumpers on mine - is that the one that came with some vehicles or is that a TJM / ARB unit?
Venn ah I had forgotten about that one!
Interesting!
(I should probably deal with the exhaust first though ) |

Front is standard just tortion bars up a bit,the trick to making it look level is the body lift being higher at the front than the rear. |

What y60 do you take the coils from? 4.2?
Also did you buy brand new or salvage parts? |

for the cost m8 get the milners ones, they are good springs and if you get a salvage set they could be on their last legs anyway. you don't want to be swapping them again in 6 months |
