    A bit of a daft question but where is the 3rd gen 2" suspension lift kit on Roughtrax site as i can only find +2" shocks and standard shocks and standard springs.
    I think i will have to give them a ring and find out what they have got in stock and go from there
    The +2 kit shows out of stock,

          i've put 20% stronger rear springs on mine (the one's from roughtrax), and i'm supposed to be fitting the front ones today, thats why I'm at the computer...

          Just having the heavier springs on the rear made a massive improvement to towing. I'd highly recommend them.

            Is it worth seeing if RoughTrax would to a bulk buy deal if there is enough interest in the 2" lift kit? I'd be interested, but also need to sort some funds...

              Ok,here's a handy tip

              Offer to do the weekly household shop. When in Asda ( other supermarkets are available),get some cash back. When the bank statement comes in,it just looks like you've been a busy boy witht the shopping!!!

              As they say.....................'every little helps'.

              Mind you,i remember that pint of milk and loaf of bread cost me 70 quid!!! ( 2 x pro comp shocks),

              On a serious note,my Surfs been raised 2",think the lift was fitted before truck was imported. I'd say the rear of surfs are quite light at the best of times. Last night a hooked up the SJ on trailer and took it for a test drive to see how it went. The ride was smooth,i only felt a slight 'Bounce' at the rear end, leaving the workshop. I guess if you get the nose weight of trailer spot on and the tow bar at right height it should be spot on.
              I can fill the Aux tank ( where underslung wheel goes) with Veg ( 100 lts),carry another 60 litrees in the back and suspension sits as if boots empty.

              See you all down the supermarket,milking your accounts.

                Smiffy your a crafty sod but i never thought about doing that.Plus i don't have to have parts sent to home i can have them sent to the workshop 5m away.
                Its mainly the rear i want to do at the moment just to help stop it sag with 2.3t on the back.
                With my trailer a surf overhangs the front and rear of the bed slightly and with in the regs for not requiring any form of flag on the rear.
                I'll post up a pic of how i have the trailer loaded and its the best it can be loaded in order to strap the truck down securely
