    6" lift

    Just wondering I've got a 4" lift at the moment and 1" body lift I've got to take out the coil springs what else do I have to do if I want to put in 6" springs

    Personally I dont why you would bother 4 inch is a good lift with good ground clearance and is more stable than 6 inch
    You would need to replace the front arms to correct castor and adjust the rear control arms and panhard rods, make sure the brake lines are long enough and longer shocks.

    What parts do you have on there already, ie dropboxes, longer control arms etc

    Nothing was just looking into it cause the springs were the same price

    M2cW is not worth it these days as it requires an engineers certificate, for what ,an extra bit of height,,
    Patrols being one of the better old school 4x4s can cut the mustard straight off the showroom floor.
    A 2"-3" lift twin lockers of choice and some 35 muddies what's going to stop you. Staying as close as possible to OE will
    mean less can go wrong, plus your patrol wont look like a skate board. That's my 2cW
