Handling Change with body lift?????

[stormforce]

OK cheers, I have had the rear suspension raised by an inch or 2 though, would this make a difference? Its just the uprated standard milners springs, with coil assisters that make another inch of height.

i think i would get the brake lines also cause if you go off road you wont have muck slack left in the standard lines

What if i went for inch and a half Body lift? Sorry to exhaust you guys knowledge but im looking at my truck just now and it is sitting up rather well, im wondering if another 2 will just be silly.

Any other mods you can recommend to quench my tinkering thirst?

Just to bring my own question to top of pile. Although being burgundy i shouldnt need to mod it its already cool.

the extra half inch wont make a great deal of differance on the lift,but if you want to get bigger tyres in the future that extra half inch can make all the differance,(so i've been told anyway)
you can do the diff breathers if you tend to do a bit of of roading and wading
you can get the wheel spacers to give that wider look

Ah spacers, good idea. Theres about an inch of body outside ma tyres anyway. So inch and half body lift, with half inch spacers for wheels.

Sounding reasonable? Or should i sod it and go the whole hog?

I dont think anyone makes any decent billet spacers in 1/2" mate. Its 30mm standard for spacers. L.A.Supertrux or Roughtrax only! DO not be tempted with cheap spacers.
