Thanks Richo - about what I expected. I'll pick up these 35's tonight and measure them with air in them.

How many landcruisers have a foot of clearance at the lowest point!?

Chucked the 35’s on last night – these are what I’ll use for on road and easy-medium trips. I need to do a Hi-Line / cutting to get the 37’s on and working properly without a body lift (which I’m trying to avoid).

Had the Hi-Lift under the chassis and had to have it nearly to the top (with the sway bar connected) to get a wheel off the ground…

Hoping to take her for er first drive Sunday arvo.

Looks good, whats your front suspension setup there? looks like a high steer, is it a 4 link front?

oh mate, its a 5 link with high steer. your going to get shocking bump steer at speed...

a high steer should either have a raised track bar mount on the axle or a 4 link.

or a normal low steer with low track bar... :/ not good

Same high steer set up and front diff as mine, although my diff pan hard mount has been raised instead of your pan hard bar shape.
Mine is on extended RE short arms with the chassis mounts lowered and repositioned. It steers fine, although had to crank the front angle caster out to about 6 deg.
No bump steer, but it does steer from the back a little due to the triangulated upper arm rear set up.
