Just finished lifting my girl 2".
started last night around 5pm (in the dark,cold wind & rain!!!
) and took around 3 hours including tea and tabs.
Bought 20% stiffer springs ( fitted earlier as asre end droped) then bought 2" spacers from 4crawler. (as well as headlight wiring upgrade kit - more later....)
fitted spacers and jacked up torsion bars to suit.
now have rim-to-fender clearence of 141/2" at rear and 14" at front.
I was advised no more than 14" at front due to future concerns with ADD system???.
anyway - heres some pictures. looking at he first two - the lift isn't all that apparent - so I've super inposed the before and after pics into one for comparison.
I bought the headlight upgrade loom from 4 crawler as my headlights were very dim - even after checking all connections and changing bulbs.
the kit contains everything, plugs,relays,resistor/diode control box, and took around an hour to fit. just removed from end grill/lights and wired it all in and clipped all cables neatly inside front bumper. no cutting off plugs required just "plug and play".
Wow ...what a difference. - its like turning the lights on!!!!!
would recommend to anyone who's dim!! (lights that is)
