Lift

[Gulley]

I have finally put in my 4 inch suspension, now im wondering what i can get away with for a little while as far as replacing panhard rods and drag links etc?

I thought all must be done at the same time hopefully someone will sort you out mate

I thought the same Healy, especially with 4".

I would not be driving to far without the rest...
If no caster correction has been done you'll be sitting at roughly 4degrees positive, and fighting to keep it straight at speed, even worse when braking.
Your bushes will all have huge strain on them, your uni joints will be at crazy angles, and diffs off center something chronic.
Imo, park it and finish it..

What have you put in? Just shocks and springs? I would do some kind of castor correction and extend your brake lines before I drive it. Non adjusted panhard rods is not ideal but IMO you can get away with out them for a little while, you wheels will stick out on the drivers side tho. I have not changed the drag link in mine and I have had lift for years, I did fit a RTC damper to band aid the pulling to the right tho.

Yeah it's still parked up hasn't been moved. Got the shocks and springs in

I had a 4' than a 7, now im changing back to 4 forever.

To keep myself out of trouble, Im going through all the paces to get this kit enginered


4 inch heavy duty coils ( have steel front and rear bar, winch ect ect )
tough dog adjustable shocks
drop boxes
front and rear adjustable panhard rod & steering correction
extended brake lines
extension on the rear brake proportioning valve arm on the rear diff
print out from a wheel alignment showing the caster angle is within the OEM specs
rear mudflaps extended so the bottom edge is no higher than 300mm off the ground.

Up too you how far you want to take it, they are the current guidelines in NSW anyways.

Cheers Matt
