Thread: 2" Lift Kit

Gents,

Got a 2" lift kit from a friend of mine who went to 3".

Set comprises:

Bilstein shocks - custom shocks, variably valved and custom damped. Harder on tar than standard, but softer than standard off road. They are also longer than standard, to match the springs.

Rear: Progressive OME 762 (medium duty)

Front: Progressive OME 761 (medium duty) + spacers (these are for a Disco1, only give 25mm lift)


Initial feedback after driving from the workshop back home and to work this working: much better road holding. While the setup is slightly harder than LR setup, it's not bone-jarring. And with the Bilsteins, you don't keep bounding after going over speed bumps - there are many on my daily commute.

Will have to try them offroad soon!

I have a Frontrunner bullbar, but no winch.

I will have to measure that when I get home this evening.
