Is this considered "fixed" now as far as ARB are concerned?

Yes it is. The guy I spoke to at QLD head office said that because I had exceed the quoted lift of 25mm front & 40mm rear before spacer was installed that they have fulfilled their requirements & I actually had more lift. He was referring to my heights on the day of install before lift not as AJ said the standard ride height, which makes sense now. Kings wouldn't make springs for a car with 50mm sag and 20mm sag. I guess I wasn't very informed when I ordered the lift and didn't know the right questions to ask. It seems strange though that you can be sol a kit without anyone looking at your vehicles current height..
These were my ride heights

Yeah that sounds right. Is original height 750 front and 780 back?

Very poor outcome.

25mm lift for the front surely is a typo.

I know Andrew. It's a joke.
Nobody makes a 25mm Spring for them as far as i know & why on earth would you take a car that already sits nose down and turn it into a full time snow plough by going higher in the back again?

Pretty sure I found that info on here Matty. AMTS would know for sure.
That's a terrible outcome btw. I'd be thinking about ripping em out and putting something else in.

Yeah I'm going to have to get some stands on the weekend and check my droop.

Got a set of stands you can borrow Matt if you're not ready to buy a set just yet..

The 884 springs shouldn't be advertised as suited with any accessories over the front for a 2" lift. The 885 is more adequate

I can't believe how a 2" lift is advertised but 1" is considered acceptable at the front but not at the rear. So as Jason said, you end up with an exaggerated nose down stance. I would bring this up to head office or PM the ARB rep here.

Curious, all my paperwork list part no 2884 as the front springs. No winch, no dual battery but do have the ARB Sahara bar. Was fitted just before Christmas and 5000 k's later is still sitting at 805 both sides at the front. Might say something about QC.

ARB's 1" lift front spring is the 883, the 884 should be 1" with a bit of extra weight up front and the 885 40mm lift with a few goodies.

As for the original measurements of 750 / 780, I know I measured a new 120 series Prado once and that was the figures I got.

Cheers Andrew
