    Doing a 4" suspension lift on the surf needs mega money. I think only a couple of trucks (Mr t? an The Bullit) have the 4" suspension lift.

    It needs brackets to drop the lower components down, It maintains all stock angles, So CV joints wont get chewed etc. But i think its near the £900 mark.

    One thing to be cautious off, is the LC springs (from what ive read!) sag on the drivers side due to fuel tank location.

    Not sure how bad a sag! But still....

    When the time comes for the big lift mate, im sure Stormy will walk you though prices/fitting etc! He seems like a decent enough bloke!
    its a lot less for a 3" inch lift,suspension wise rod.about 150 quid for the balljoint spacers and lc springs,cant remember how much the pro comps were but not mega money,anyhows the 3" inch sus lift was 450 ish quid.

    the 2" inch body lift was 50 odd quid,and you have there all the components you need.

    i have a wee bitof sag drivers side,but you have to look hard to see it,its probably 2-3 mm lower than the other side,its not all mega money its possible to do it quite cheaply

    all in all, i suppose i have spent a grand on my lift but that included 5 brand new 33's
    Non intercooled nothing.

        Bonjourno mate! How are ya? aint spoken in a while....

        I agree, 3" is a cheaper option.

        Ive got pretty much the exact same package waiting to go on my truck except i used Roughtrax +2" springs instead of LC springs. Similar money in all honesty.

        I would love the suspension off the Bullit - but its just too much for me wallet!!

          I dont know if your in a situation to sort out a lift now, but 4 crawler do the 2" rear coil spacers for about £60 delivered!! chuck them in an wind the torsion bars, instant lift!!

          Not sure who still does body lift kits, But again 4crawler £60 for a 2"

          So, Its not THAT expensive, there are more expensive/better ways! But for general purposes.
          You've got your prices a little mixed up a 4crawler 2" body is

          Blocks and bolts-$75
          bumper brackets-$10
          rad brackets-$15
          shipping-$39
          =$139 or £66
          +vat and UK handling- £11.55 and normally about £20
          =£97.50 (vs £85 for mine !!)

          2" coil spacers work out about £75 a pair (I know cos i ordered 6 pairs last month!)

          Don't forget you always need to add vat and UK handling to imported stuff, and if its over so much you get import duty as well.

              you just gave me a idea but dont think it would work a collection to help members raise their trucks but it would prob work out dearer than if you did your own

                    gotta say as well rod,

                    when you look at the difference in the circumference of the metal used beween the surf spring and the lc spring
                    it made me glad i went for the lc springs.when we fitted them,the truk hardly dropped at all,and i have heard some stories of saggy ars5 syndrome developing on milners/roughtrax 20% stronger/bigger !!


                    and bonjourno straight back atcha !!

                      Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't, its pretty random for smaller parcels. Once you start spending over £80-£100 they start adding it more often. Roger is pretty good about what he declares the goods are worth for import dutys, but they still catch out you sometimes.



                      Just wouldn't want anyone to get a shock.

                              Depends on one day having a full tank, and others when its empty, 65lts of fuel weighs a lot.
