hey i have a LWB SII ute and its sitting low as so im wanting to lift it a bit my option are..


1. body lift.
2. shackle lift
3. spring over.
4. suspension lift

now the issues...

1. i think its fairly hard to do a body lift concidering the panels are seprate and its not like later model cars where you would just put blocks in

2. it will only gain me an inch or so

3. you would need to do alot of wqork to the steering and i think you need a engineers cert..

4. this seems to be the option although i doubt you would be able to get 2'' spring lift for these babys.. so does anyone know of any later model springs that will fit her??

Check out the series 2a ex army rovers as they had longer shackels and heavier springs etc ex factory.
The later 2a ex army rovers with the cut away front guards were done that way so they could take the larger 900x 16 tyres..........not recommended because of the small diffs.

how about parabolic springs ?
i think springs and possibly shackles is the easiest way. if you take the suspension lift too far you may have trouble with the tailshaft uj`s
