I agree with Tony. Any patrol with more than 2' of lift should have the tailshaft flipped
EG: Skinny end near the gearbox
Whenever i fit a 3/4/6/ suspension lift i always flip the tailshaft
Cheers

Big difference and much easier than trying to lift the gearbox!
One job to go = extended brake lines
Couple more random pix

Was gonna comment on the sway bar links but forgot that it was also your work truck.
In the words of a Dhuck "QUACK".
That looks good with the lift in mate, what brand of gear did you end up using

Rig looks the goods mate!!
Yeh I drive this thing from site to site every day so Im happy to remove the front sway bar but will keep the rear fitted (for now at least!)
I bought this kit second hand from a guy that had it in his gu for 6 months, sold that vehicle and put the standard suspension back in.
It consists of king springs, raw shocks and steering damper, ironman panhards. Unsure of the make of draglink, drop boxes and extended rear trailing arms but Im going to put superior engineering stickers on those haha
Very happy with how its coming along, snorkel is on its way and then I want to do the transfer case low range gears, may be awhile off though.
Let us know how the kit goes, there were a few guys looking at the raw shocks and for opinions on them..
They look the goods though

Im impressed with them so far, seem good quality and there not made in china
They have quite a firm rebound so not a lot of body roll even with the front sway bar removed
