Never argue with an idiot, cos he'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

They said I could be ANYTHING when I grew up... so I became a balloon animal

3" spring lift rear shocks are 5" longer got home made spring retainers and 2" body lift 11mm longer rear lower control arms only just put arms in as i broke std one the other week

Did you have problems with rear shocks bottoming out? I was riding on a 3 inch flexi coils with a 4 inch shocks and sometimes the shocks were bottoming. Than I started to use a Superior Engineering front superflex arms and changed rear shocks on 3 inch.

nar mate no problem with bottoming out in the rear heres a pic of it fully compressed

but the front is not the best not sure why at the moment maybe cause it has aftermarket bushes

if they were bottoming out you could have lowered you bump stop a bit. It will increase your roll centre but with thos length shocks it wont bother it at all

Stock arms never work well in a patrol.
