Thread: spacers/ body lift kit

Have a look here: Body Lift Kit

yeh sorry mate i didnt phrase the question write i was asking if anyones put 2.5 inches of rubber spacers after the coils instead of lifting the body to acheive the same thing but with a lifted chassis as well.
cheers for the link though les richmonds good site

Thorpey, IMHO you have a lot of material, front and back B4 you get too chassis, theoretically you could use 2" plates under the spring plates, but I'm not sure how you would go with the front, with the shocks inside, would be a bit fiddly. if your that keen to lift the chassis, longer springs is the way to go.

Just after following that link, it looks like they make a kit for lifting the chassis with spacers but it looks like more bits than you were thinking.

thanks adam. ive scean the spacers before on cars only small ones though i thought major lift out of them might be pushing it. ive always wanted these Australian 4WD Monthly dedicated to 4WD, 4x4, SUV, Truck, 4 wheel drive and off road community, loaded with tips, tests, reviews, travel, gallery and forum but there are the legalities of it. might have to go the body lift kit.

Oh don't get me started on the wish list....... portals would be nice, but I'm not sure they are still being made and on top of that from memory they were very $$.

I stand corrected, doing a bit of browsing, not looking for anything in particular, and found these made by Rovertym.

they list a 2" spacer and add, or to customer spec. bit expesive, i recon. but too each his own.

I notice that LRA do a 2" diff drop kit for a d2, can you do the same thing on a D1?
Late model D1's mostly have airbags, so body lifts are out.
Or are 4" springs better?
