    No in Vic you can have a 2" body lift, a 2" suspension lift and an increase in tyre size of 2" so 33s are legal in Vic

    spoke to david from 4x4 etreme this afternoon and body lift is legal now and he can mod plate it. As a general rule you are allowed a 2 inch lift up here aswell. As for moding a 4 inch lift it is not possible up here. And yes I have some 35 centerpedes waiting for me in the garage.

    Finally I get to challenge MR...LMAO

    VicRoads' new VSI 8 regulation permits "Owner Certified" 4WD ride height increases up to 75mm, with 50mm maximum allowed for suspension lift, plus a 25mm increase resulting from fitment of a tyre with 50mm greater outside diameter, provided the modifications are undertaken using a commercially available lift kit that has been specially designed and tested for the vehicle application. Under the national guidelines, 'Owner Certified' lifts are limited to 50mm.

    A copy of VSI 08 can be downloaded from the link: http://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/NR/rd...orvehicles.pdf .
