If i was to install a 2" body lift to my 3.0L 2000 nissan patrol GU wagon. Does anyone know if you can just lift the body 2" or will any pipes or hoses have to be replaced?
Or does anyone have any tips for me?
Thanx

If you haven't got a spring lift kit in already then shouldn't be an issue any higher than two inch from stock height and you need to start extending brake lines I believe

Hey Shane,

Head over to the introduction section and post an intro thread bud, we like folk to say g'day before they ask for advice.

Re your question... A body lift on a GU is very unusual and not sure you really need one. Why do you want to do that?

A BL on a GQ is common but mainly to deal with the fact that the wheel arches on a GQ are tiny and won't fit a 35 without a big lift or a BL.

GU have big wheel arches and don't need a BL for this reason.

Save your cash for a 2" suspension lift mate;)
