Howdy guys, thanks for the feed back, body lift doesn't seem like the go. would rather speend my bucks else where anyway, just new it would be easier to fit the sliders with one.
How do you guys get on with over a 2" lift and 33" tryres legaly in QLD for insurance etc???
Do the rear quarter chop and cut some of the rear arch away on the front side so if anyone has any info or pics to see how effective this is with 35" tyres I would love to know too!
Rear quarter chop and trimmed front arch pics mate..with a bit worn 35'' pedes and 3'' suspension lift

Cheers Tony.
A body lift kit , what is 12 or so blocks and longer bolts, is way more cheaper than upgrade suspension by a country mile
Body lifts kits what $150, wont get 2"springs and longer shocks for what under a grand or so
Done the body lift in my ute , trolley jack,block of wood, removed from one heap and in the ute all in a few hours, so goin new maybe same time, depends on how hard the old bolts are to get out
Youll need to mod the shifter plate a touch and get a longer clutch hose,about it
Legalities wise
2" body lift can be approved,must be pre approved before fitting then must go for an inspection before final approval , usually like at a machinery station (most older 4bies would fail on full machinery, hence many dont get approved)
Suspension is 1/3 more travel than factory offered, usually 2" more
Tyres are 15 mm taller than the talest offered on that model
IF ya not sure checkout QLD DOT website, its all there what ya can or cant do ,legally that is
