I'm contemplating a Teraflex Performance Leveling Kit which will give me 1" lift in the rear and 2" lift in the front which would be perfect for my needs.
I am taking out my teraflex coils next week I have about 40 mm in front thats with arb bar and winch and about 50 mm in the rear, if you want pm me and you can have them for a very reasonable price

I have 2" lifted coils in my 4 door,my car is now loaded up with bullbar,winch,dual battery,AEV rear bar & water tanks,metal fat boy fender flares, blackwidow draws, loaded fridge & slide as a permanent fixture, & my roof racking system goes on at the end of the month.
I have found that the height & ride is great, but the 35" muds on 10" rims scrub a little so Im going taller, so I will be visiting Shane at Suspension Stuff next week.
If you want some 2nd hand (done 6000klm) 2" flexi coils for nearly nothing PM me.
cheers piggy.

My main concern was getting a ridiculously higher lift than what is advertised.

I asked for a 2" lift, those same coils gave Seacomms what appears to be a 2.75" lift.

I got slightly bigger coils than Dave was hoping to get alittle more lift
Dave has 600mm from centre cap to bottom off fender, I am hoping for around 610-620 mm. Will see tomorrow.
I asked Shane for 3-3.5" lift
