    Just a big cheers to Gav (tonka1) for the 2" body lift that my ol' truck is now proudly wearing. Looks !!!!!! marvellous. And all for a fraction of a shop bought kit too!

    Now all I need is those springs and dampers..............Hurry up Tony! Oh and next time you stalk me at least flash yer lights!

    BTW Top BBQ last night! Right old laugh.

      Looks good- did you encounter any difficulties with the lift?

      I did a similar lift a few weeks back. Yesterday, when offroading I found that Low Range was harder to select than normal. It could be jiggled into place but was much easy to shift into before.

          After Jotto's 1 1/2 (?) body lift he had no low range 4x4 . We lifted the centre consol and found that a little die grinding was needed to the floor panel to allow the shift lever to travel forward to allow full engagement .

              Piece of cake! I was surprised how easy it was, but I now have no low range, so I'll be out with the grinder next w/e. Worse bit was fabricating the bumber brackets, twice eh Gav! Lol!

                  So what is it that you actually used to do the lift then Dan/Gav? I can see a picture of it but what is it exactly?! Is this just a body lift via the 8 chassis bolts? I've been toying with the idea of the lifting the SDV...

                  Looks much better though Danno!!!
