Teraflex from DBOR?

I'm not even sure how much lift i want, i'm thinking around 2" as thats pretty standard.. any local recommendations or stores i should look into for fittings?

ARB seem to charge an arm and a leg for anything they sell!

Where did you get the track bar though that doesnt fit properly? The US setup is slightly different (apart from being reversed) and their front trackbars are about an inch longer than ours, hence the assumptions yours must be a LHD version.

As for fitting its not very hard to do it yourself with basic tools, and if you are going offroad on a regular basis you really need to be able to wrench it yourself or you will be facing ongoing costs with fine tuning and checking any lift.

I got the panhard from here used, can't rememeber who from. I've gone out to the garage and measured it and it comes up to 830mm from centre of one bolt hole to the centre of the other. That's fully wound in.
Not sure if any of you guys have a poly or tereflex adjustable panhard that you could measure to compare to ?

Just measured the stock front one (still lying on the garage floor a year later...) and its 790mm eye to eye. I remember that with mine sitting at 2.75in above stock I was about 15mm closer to one side, so needed the track bar 7mmm longer than stock. That means my Poly track bar is currently about just under 800mm. Looking at it as it currently sits I could adjust it about 20mm shorter if needed, so it would be about 780mm eye to eye at shortest length. I am pretty sure yours must be a US version then. I have heard of people cutting an inch or so off the end providing the thread goes in far enough, just need to be sure the bends are the right way.

Awesome flex mate Seen the Fox Shocks in action B4 but I think those springs are what makes it. What Specs are they ?

Custom rates and steel grade and thickness, I'll get the full details soon.
They work excellent, stiff on road but we do mainly sand work up here and cross ruts or woops anything under knee deep I barely feel and even when it does bottom out its still rebounding smooth, jumping it tends to bounce the rear once after landing and then it's all good. Need to do something with my exhaust though limiting travel in the front????
