    What's the best 2" kit to get ?

    Hey guys on the market for a 2" lift what should I get ?
    Do I get a tough dog kit or Dobson kit or should I get separate shocks and springs ?
    Those where just 2 kits that came to name

    What do you want to do with your car?
    That is the first question you need to ask before you even look at brands.

    You will get a lot of different opinions on this.
    I have always gone OME springs and shocks and have had a great run, did 120000km out of set on prado with no problems and have same on Patrol for 50000km so far and am happy.

    I want to pack up of a weekend and go where ever obviously not climb rock faces or boulders but if there's a track to take I'm taking it I know I'm limited with a 2" but iv got no lift at the moment and go every where the boys go

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Running OME and happy with them. A bit stiff unloaded but great when it's got my gear in it.
