Lift kit

[sammy]

Just wondered what height my surf should sit at, ie distance between floor and wheel arch. Dont know if a lift kit has already been fitted, but what height would it be with 2" lift
Any help would be good thanks

Its dark and peeing with rain, will do it tomorrow now. But 14" from top of wheel rim the middle of wheel arch opening rings a bell.

Sammy - I sent the big T out to measure it before work today. It was 13" from top of wheel rim the middle of wheel arch

Linda, I take it yours is with the 2" lift?

Yep - 2" longer coils in the rear and 1 1/2" cranked front tortions.

Keep thinking about giving mine a lift, but wasn't sure whether to go spring or body first What you reckon, and how does yours handle?

Handles like a dream.....

May do a 2" body lift some time later in the year - mainly to get the bigger tyres on... but the other trucks are taking precendence right now (as they're already in bits and Tony's not touching the Black Bullet until one of them is driveable, or we'll have nothing to play with!!)

Personally I'd do suspension first as you don't have to alter anything else to make it fit. With the body lift you may need to length steering column etc.

Up to you though. Have a look here if you want the full spec of our trucks.. or pop up one weekend and have a look/chat...
