What are people running suspension wise. 2" lift ? Looking value for money. Got steel bar. Winch and all fruit up front. Roof rack. Tow a large camper trailer. Would appriciate some advice from people's experience. Is there such a thing as a good ride while handling all this ???

There is some pretty cool technology getting around now in shocks such as bypass shocks that essentially allow you to have two shocks in one. Supposed to be awesome but not sure they affordable for the average Patrol driver yet. I have 2in lift with heavy duty old man emu shock. Effective but stiff ride.

I have an EFS 2" system and very happy, but which ever you decide make sure
they taylor it to suit what you want to do EG towing in your case. They would probably
put slightly heavier springs in the back to level out your ride.
Also if towing a lot you might want some rear coil tower braces fitted.

Also might want to pop over to the intros as well ,
no harm done just polite and all. lol
