Default Any pics of RRO's and Leveling fitted

After anyone who has got the RRO's fitted, together with the front Levelling kit installed as well.

Does anyone see any safety issue in this configuration or Aust legality with this?

Also, are new control arms mandatory or can you reuse the factory control arms.

I would like to maintain ride quality, but just need to get this thing OFF the ground. I have the normal suspension, non-QL, non-SLS.

The cost difference to changing the entire suspension(shock/springs) to lift it is negligible, but I've only hesitate after reading some don't like the ride stiffness from the Dobinson, and whatever cons I've read about the Murchinson's.

imaz happy for you to take my gc for a ride . Dobinson struts in the front with stiffer springs due to arb bar and dobinson springs with factory nivomat's in teh rear . IMO i honestly think it's a stiffer yet smoother ride than it was before the lift went in .

Did you get longer springs and no lift spacers? or same spring height together with lift spacers.

I have the RRO Leveling kit installed on my 2014 MY14. Have a Ironman bullbar Uneek front bash plate and factory sump protection. Will try and get a pic for you tomorrow.
