Aif i want a 2" lift and want to put 4 springs, 4 shocks, and a steering dampner in, do i have to change anything else???

Balso, looking at all the brands, i have no idea on the quality of things, ive been told to stay away from cheap.

i am looking at spending around the 1k mark.

Cive been told you can remove some 'bars' ???? to help out or something?

not 100% sure on what that means...

im in perth.

i pick up my 2000 td5 tommorow cant wait!

cheers

G'day
A-- fitted 40mm lift to mine with no modifications needed(Springs/shocks/damper)

B-- I went OME from ARB but you realy need think through what you are intending on doing.
Are you chasing flex? Soft/hard ride? Are you touring so have to carry weight? Towing?

C-- Not real sure.

Here is what I did...http://www.aulro.com/afvb/members-ri...ml#post1170211

and alien, how much did that set you back?

the link that emu gave me has a $730 package which seems pretty good...

but i dont know anything about the brands really.

I could tell you but then I have to ....Um ask SHMBO and well..I'm not game

Although most people will say that you won't, you may need castor correction bushes to compensate for 'tram-tracking'.

will my workshop manual explain that to me in english?

sorry, first disco for me, so i have a lot to learn.
