    It looks better with the lift and sits at a good height, not too high. Where did you get the suspension from?

    Redlands 4WD ... bloody good price too as they had heaps of problems with the aftermarket fuel tank - did a bit of customising also ($2685 total) ... much happier with the height - that's about all I want now ... just all the other toys to go in it ...

    Thanks mate - been unhappy with the previous setup for a while - whoever had it before me put variable rate springs in the front in the they were virtually collapsed .. shocks were dead set stuffed all round, and they hadn't changed the original arms, link pins etc, so everything was strained to the buggery ... nice old ride now.
