    what lift kit would best suit my needs

    hey guys im looking at a lift kit for my gq i only want a 2" lift but cannot decide on brands etc. im going to be alot of beach and bush track work. i have a arb steel bullbar with winch and soon to be dual batteries. i dont tow anything but have drawers with recovery gear and camping gear in the back. i have a fairly tight budget. i dont need anyone to fit as i can fit myself however i wanna try and keep it under 1K if possiblle. im tossing up between ironman OME and suspension stuff's felxy coil kit. what would you guys suggest

    I think they're all ok mate but I don't know much about the flexi coils they sound good if they perform

    OME been around forever and are a proven good product

    Ironman should never be mentioned in the same breathe as OME or Suspension stuff mate. Junk. For your budget of $1k you should have no trouble getting OME and they are second to none. Easy choice! OME all the way bud.

    Enjoy

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
