I have had a look at the arb ones, and they seem to offer a limited choice of kit and far from the 3 inch max authorised by rta in nsw.

Stu offers 2.5 inch, pity that it doesn't offer 3 inch, lol .

In 2011 when i was in nsw looking into their regs, it was 150 mm total but only 100 mm suspension lift. You may want to check with the RTA. Keeping it legally registered was my primary concern being on a lease.

This is how the standard KK Sport looked with the extra 3".

Have to say, ur KK on 3-inch looks even more badass lol...

Cheers Single, this was almost 2 years ago and before the bar. Now it sits lower at the front when the back isn't loaded. The approach angle isn't as good but the ride is great.

Hi rebel, not sure what's avail for you one states but if you can get them I would highly recommend the Stu Crd lift kit. Changed out my mopar for it and have not looked backed. Much better ride and clearance.

It looks great! Don't know if it's only me but when i click on the link it takes me to a post about a snorkel.

Thx vards, just checked rta (or rms now) and it states:
"
Fitting of body mountings, a body lift kit or mounting points other than those designed by the vehicle manufacturer.

Example not requiring certification: • Fitting optional body lift kits or mountings that are designed for that make and model of vehicle and meet or exceed manufacturer’s specifications. "

Not sure how to interprate that......
