Who ever told me I would want more (may have been Mr Extreme) was right.
After 2inch OME and 31s I just want a bit more and was thinking of a body lift, how much is involved in this both in parts and dollars. I don't want to go too high (if that's not a dirty word here) cos I dont want too big a gap between bars and body. I was thinking 1inch or more but less than 2.
What else is effected by BL, do I need SYE or anything else?
I am planning SYE and discos, can I do BL first? Should they be done together?
Finally what to get and of course HOW MUCH?
Thanks in advance,
Moorey :)
Just go for a JKS 1.25" body lift.
Best of both worlds there really.
Nothing else is required when doing a BL and a good kit comes with great instructions and all of the parts you might need.

If I get a SYE down the track smoewhere will that eliminate the need for the T/Case Shift Linkage plate? And the T/case spacers from the OME lift?

well my 1" BL is in. Took about 4 - 5 hours, but this was because the holes of the three body mounts around the trannie/transfer on either side were to small for the new mounts provided in the kit, the dremel got a good workout and now they fit :)
The fan shroud looks to be an ass to relocate, i am giving serious consideration to a 1" MML so i don't have to hack it up. At the moment it is secured by the original bolt on the pas side at the top and pushed down on the drivers side with a self tapper holding it clear of the fan till i work out what i am doing.
I also installed the transfer case rod relocation bracket and now i can only get 4H, ran out of time yesterday to work this out, will have a crack tonight.
