    I've decided the lift will come last after everything else is installed fitted and in.
    Now having thoughts if a 3 or 4 inch lift. 35s and engineered.

    I had a 2" lift using springs and shocks only, no issues and even tyre wear. Check the wear before the lift, is it even? If so, it'll be ok after a 2" lift. General wisdom is; 3" and above is starting to need 'additional bits'. Don't forget, all places selling and fitting this stuff have a vested interest in selling you the most stuff, especially if business is quiet.

    I believe that anything over 2" total height increase is illegal in Vic, engineered or not, but (very) happy to be corrected.
