Suspension finally lifted Wahoo! Thanks GWH and Tintin!

[cheese]

right took pics this morning have to upload tonight.

33's wont be fitted til next weekend- going in to have winch and body lift fitted this weekend and pick up next weekend.
I may be slightly eager about this .

I bet you are . I'm eager to see the finished article

Finally got some uploaded. Took one form both sides as although its level the camber of the road makes one side look high and the other one lower. Take and average and you get the difference.
I...love...it...

gosh.............you have had an.............ahem ..................erection !!

[cheese]

OMG those wheels look diddy now

That is a huge lift, what is it like to drive that high off the ground

[Don Logan]

That looks a lot better Paul, did you have to fit a longer brakeline at the rear? What was the issue with the spring compressors? I've borrowed some but i'm not sure they'll be man enough for the LC springs. Did you fit a longer panhard rod or keep the old one on? I've got the longer springs, shocks and brakelines now, and was wondering if i should sort out an adjustable rod or not.

I see from the pics that the window's still out from Hampshire Laning.... That day took its toll on mine too. I need 3 new wheel arches, new bumper sections and my passenger door no longer opens due to the dented wing...

The winch is next then?

Excellent! Were the springs on special offer, buy two and get a set of roofbars, chrome wheels and a snorkel?

Winch, Apache bashplate, bodylift, brake lines and adj pan rod this weekend

I think the adjustable rod is advisable as it will pul things about without it. If you want to borrow my 2 sets of spring compressors you are welcome to them- either get to me, pay for the postage or if I can make it I can come and help with your lift (dont expect knowledge but I can donate brute force)

Yep window still out, front ing well and truly dented and drivers door difficult to open because of it. Was a fun day though

[Don Logan]

Yeah it was a fun day... If you don't mind lending brute force one day, i could come to you. You live in Epsom don't you? Think i'm about 45 mins from there in Berkshire. I haven't got a hi lift jack though. Did you lot use one?

[Don Logan]

Bump.

[biosurf]

Yo
Yep I have and used a hi lift, not least as a lever to get enough room to cram the BJ spacers in.
More than happy to help with yours but would need someone who has done a lift before too as I missed a few bits of the process.
Can come to you no problam

[Don Logan]

Cheers, but it looks like i'll be getting my mate to help with it now. Thanks anyway, and see you at the plain?

[tintin]

paul, did you get the bodylift/hubs/panhard rod done this weekend!
How does it look, and how does it handle mate?

Its at the fabricator/mechanic dudes place as we speak ready to be picked up on Saturday
Hopefully with the lot done as well as the bashplate and winch fitted.
Hopefully without the bobtailing that he keeps threatening to do when my back is turned!

So should be able to answer that come Saturday

I'm putting waterproof covers on my seats in case I let a bit of wee out

[tintin]

Nice one, i reckon thats going to be one very cool truck by saturday!
I'll be changing brakes and fluids on saturday, without Gra, so i'll be one bad tempered mutha by about 2 o'clock

Alan

[biosurf]
