The lower control arms I discussed with Suspension stuff and they said its borderline when on a 3inch whether you need them or not. So I might leave them for now, get it all in, go for a spin next weekend and test it out. Then after that I will go either standard or plus 10mm in a stronger arm. As for shockers, the said the Amada's are the goods but do give a harsher ride on the black top. As its not a full time 4wd (shut up George!) they advised on the Tough dog 45mm adjustables. But hey said these don't like heat too much and sand driving and long corrugated roads will shorten the life of them. But for high country he said they will be good. Lets hope they get here in time... Got my 35's today too. They're messive bro!

Dont buy the Superior Drop Boxes as they require cutting and i am not a fan. I have the Superiors on the GQ and did the cut. I fitted Non Cutting ones to the GUIV and they were so much easier to fit it was nuts. and if i take them out there is no reminder.

Something like THIS would be perfect

Thanks Darren. I will message him to see how he posts them. If its with Aus Post I am better off getting some local and paying the little extra. I have only next week to get everything and put it together...Beers at my place if anyones interested at coming over a helping out, or just drink my beer...:)
What do you actually need to cut too?
on the other side of town but these look ok...

Superior drop boxes dont need cutting.

Superior is actually closer to you then suspension stuff is (both either side of Brisbane) so if you need superior stuff, other then the fact its friday shouldnt take any longer then suspension stuff.

Yeah the original Superiors Drop Boxes needed Cutting and i have them on the GQ, you had to cut a square slot out of eh bottom of the chassis. Not very Kool! The guy that made the original "No Cut" should have put a patent on them, everyone is copying his design now and there are plenty that now sell a "No Cut" drop box.

The only issue is the size. The ones that Jonathan has are low profile ones. Like the Superiors. Thats what I'd prefer...Just gotta find them.

Bump stops! I forgot about bump stops!!!
