Hi guys,
New to 4x4 scene, I have a GQ LWB wagon that I am about to mod, I would like to run 35" tyres, what lift kit would I need to give it clearance? Thinking 4" all round with no body lift.

Hi guys,

hey mate jump over to the intro and put a post in there!
As for the lift on 35's, this a question I will never understand, If the tyre wont fit in the guard now on full flex it's not going to fit in the guard no matter what lift! I run 35's and cut both front and rear guards.
I run a 2" lift &2" bodylift works great with 35s
Yep 35s here too . Simple 2" susp lift and 2" body lift works for me ;)
So a 4" susp lift will be the same as 2" body + 2" susp?
You'll have to really watch your compression length and extend the bump stops to suit.
Nah not the same. Suspension lift will increase the distance between the axle and chassis whereas a body lift increases the distance between the chassis and the body.Quote:

Big difference between 2 inch and 4 inch lift in what is needed.....Quote:

For 4 inch, adjustable panhards, swaybar extensions, springs, shocks, drag link (I think), caster correction (drop boxes, bushes, plates) extended brake lines and more.....
Also, you don't want 4 inch front and 5 inch rear, you want properly chosen 4 inch springs all round, designed to carry the weight you expect to have on board.

So 4" all round with heavy duty springs in the rear?
