hey guys this is an update of my lift as of this morning.. the 16th

well it was sitting at 2" all round the car but the rear end looked a little saggy and i preffered the higher arse end. well the 2.5" block i has laying around came in handy as i cut them in half and make 1.25" blocks for the rear and made some nylon coil spacers for the front. aswell as some 50x25 for the tranny lowering and 50x50 and 25x25 for some shock extensions..

all these were done as gojeeps specs and sites and it all went on this morning in about 2 hours..

Current height: Rear 21 1/4" Front 21"

this is with Lovelles COils in the front. and stock leafs in the rear. also running Nitro Charger shocks all round the car.

the brake lines can handle the limit and plus i dont do much offroad so its all good. i have NO vibes at all! thats from the tailshaft anyways.. cut it has got some bad susp wobbles on corragated roads its COG has risen lots and u can really notice it. plus my sway bar HASNT been changed so i suspect that to be causing alot of this!

here are the pics of the lift and current state.. Cheers all for your help.. its finally what it should look like.. a real 4x4..
