Thread: 35 in tyres

Did you guys that have done a 2inch lift do the beake lines too ?

Brake lines sorry

i haven't

it all depends on the setup!! there is 2" lift and theres a 2" lift.

some 2" lifts dont gain huge amounts more travel so yes no chopping, no brake line extensions, etc

then you can a have a 2" lift with GQ shocks rear and 80 series shocks front and yes you will need guard trimming (35x 12.50) and brake line extensions (i think rear only? - can't remember)).

neither 2" lift will really require any castor mods, but depending on your setup you may need guard trimming (just the black stuff not internal - wheel arch), brake line extensions, spring retainers - or 'drop out cones', 'holey bushes' front end, angled bushes or cranked rear arms in the arse end and bump stop extensions (and even shock relocation mounts) to gain the most out your setup.


yes, i've probably missed something....


where lucky driving fenders though, we need very little in comparison to other makes to get good rubber under them and for them to flex well

im still running the standard brake lines, but i have moved the mounts and its at its absolute limits as is, i plan on getting braided lines front and rear, but just havnt got around to it, to busy playing with the motor. Heres a shot of my rear end flex, my front end doesnt get enough travel to worry about the brake lines yet.

i got an extended brake line made up, cost me $40 for a DOT approved rear brake line that is 4" longer than stock
