Mudrunner you are a great help mate, how thick do you reckon the spacer should be? I see you can get quite a few sizes from 10mm to 40mm. If I got a spacer then do I need the double cardin joint or vice versa?

Hi Brett,

The cert is just for what you modify. low volume cert. If you modify brake lines for instance then it includes the brake system. Engineering Certifiers now days dont tend to go through the drop door or anything else that maybe a WOF issue only what you ask for to be certified. Also really good idea to get a new WOF as soon as it has been done as whoever does the WOF will be less critical as you have just had it certified. If you go down the road 3 months later they will look harder at what was modified. You will also have some come back on the mods if it doesnt get a new WOF.

Hope you will be able to get to the bottle store again with a 4inch lift, living in CHCH lol
