Yeah still cant see the bottom of the bump stop. is it Split or anything? hard to tell from that pic.
Ghee on closer look here though it looks like it has spent some time on that bump stop mate! cant really tell but does look shagged by the jagged look of the bottom that i can just see.

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.Originally Posted by Rogue Dung Beetle

Yeah Nah she's Knackered mate. You will probably find a set at a Wreckers though. a dime a dozen.
The rear ones are bolted to the chassis and are a triangle shape hanging down under the chassis rail.

Take a measurement from the centre of wheel/axle up to the guard before and after and see the difference. Youll know how sagged your old setup was

Agree, measure all four corners too ,so if you have a levelling problem after fitment, you have at least obtained a "before" measurement.
Also measure from the road to your roof height , my springs had sagged that much, after I fitted my 2" lift ,the roof actually ended up 4" higher than before !
