It's funny, when they called to tell me the car was ready, they quoted an 80mm lift :shock: I near cr@pped myself, our garage is not what you would call spacious vertically, luckily one of the guys had misread another's scribbles, so the car fits

I got the lovells based on a quoted lift of 40mm and that was going to be pushing it for clearance, so while more height would have been nice, I'm still happy with the way it turned out.

Time for some fair dinkum tyres Mav 8) .

Cheers,

Tell me about it, but it is a lease car so I need the GCs to die before I can get new tyres. Then Mickey Ts all the way

I never measured the height before the lift kit but after the Premium Billy/ride pro kit the measurements are:

Front: 780mm
Rear: 820mm

Front has Sov BB but only single batt and lightforce 240 spotties.

Ride no different to stock suspension, not rigid & body still rolls in corners. Still has standard Grandcraps on it.

[HIKDJ]

Measurements with reservoir nearly full.

Before:
Front 740 mm
Rear 780 mm

After (Koni Raid shocks, EFS MD springs):
Front 768 mm (+28 )
Rear 833 mm (+53)

I am disappointed about the unequal gain between front and rear.
Does anyone have an explanation? Do I need to correct this (how?)

[joey]

my fronts are 810
rear is 830

Standard Front 750
Standard Rear 770

After OME + Steel ARB Bar + Dual Bat's + Spots + Outback Drawers + Recovery gear + 90 l fuel
Front (OME884/N140S) 800 settled to 780 after 6000km
Rear (OME896/N142) 820 and now 830 (work that out!? maybe 40-50 l less fuel)

Very impressive ride with full load , though I have still to come to grips with best way to handle corrugations - just don't like 'em!
