    Just be careful @kiwiswb Mate with SWB models as their rear tail shaft is a lot shorter than the LWB models and more prone to vibration when suspension lifted. It is due to the universal joints being at unequal angles and becomes greater faster the higher the lift that is installed. From memory a 2” lift on a SWB will need spacers between chassis and gearbox crossmember to help angle the gearbox rear downwards. Certainly any higher than 2” lift like mine also requires adjustable rear upper control arms to be able to rotate the rear differential pinion so that the opposing universal joint angles are matched at average ride height out on the highway speeds.
