A bit more info would be helpful.
Is your truck 2nd or 3rd gen. Manual or auto.
How much lift in inches are you after .

Nice easy one to start with... "What need sorting on the dog van?"
...and just so we all know, what are the 3 bars you speak of?

Our local shop is doing 3 mars bars on a special offer....

Got to be the search button for this...

My money would be on the three bars being
torsion bars x2
panhard rod x1

but could as easily be this

right i have a gen 2 auto import k reg
i dont know what the bars are as i aint a mechanic they were in the back of the surf when bought
2 " lift i think would be nice i think

Easy one then:

Fit extended rear springs , wind from torsion bars up 2" . Voila 2" lift! When you said hilift kit I was thinking 4-6" lift.
With 2" your standard shocks will do for now but won't have much upwards movement.

Or if you fit your uprated torsion bars you'll also get 2" lift without over stressing the standard bars.

He is in Grahams area, maybe a blether with him first might set the guy on the correct path.

Bars can't mean springs.. surely?
