Oh wow! Thanks man... jeez that really surprised me about the article! shes a bit different these days to back then.Originally Posted by Skellz
There is one in QLD done the way you said 50mm bigger airbags 50mm spacers it was in issue 115 4wd action and is on the web side in owner's rides
Just wounding if you know wered i can see more photos of Tombie ride I saw photos on the site the other day with those flash wheels and micky's and courght a view of his rock slide and was wnating to know were i can get some.
You are the reason I have a landy after seeing your's in overlander 4wd june 2004 i had to have one
Has any one in Vic ask around about the landy in the Vic Landy club
Some one down there must know something a wargon that good you cant hide for to long
Oh yeah! Thats Brooksy up in QLD. He's found a direct airbag swap to do 4" - I forgot about that one. For some reason it doesn't look like it flex's as much as it should do - that may be related to swaybars though. He's also running offset Mickey Thompson or something similar rims IIRC. You can find him pretty easily as the user Brooksy on Outerlimits4x4. I think he has a build description of the car on there.
They're the only pics of Tombies car I've seen. His running coils all round, but did a lot or all of the design work for the SLS spacers.

it must be at least 4' in the springs and another 2' in the body to get that sorta clearence over 35s. but looks awesome! although i dont think the owner would appreciate the his plates going up with the words bodylift in the same thread as the transport department chaps have a habit of doing people from forums such as ours.
id be keen as to body lift mine, i figure i dont need the SRS bags anyway in a LR :P
Swaggie
He'll be right - if he was really worried then he wouldn't have fitted the body lift.
Some of the guard clearance looks may have also come from the cutting and fitting of the flares.
I wonder why a car built like that doesn't have a winch.

Not likely to get stuck picking the kids up maybe.

might just be a show pony...hope not, it would be pretty damn good in the mud
No it was coils all way around. I should have snapped a pic of under the rear guard. It was nicely finished. Dont think the rims were offset.that is one nice ride that is not going under any under ground car park
Did you say it still had air bags in it l would love to find out more about how they lifted it with air bags
I know there is a white one in VIC with 37s
did you say it had a body lift
looking at photos it just look like the supsenion has been done
Hope the owner get on line and lets use know a little more about his ride because it is one of the best look D2 rides I ve seen bar the JTM bar on the frount could at least put a good looking ARB one on
did you notice if those rims were off set and by how far
Yep, coils allround.see what you mean about the tow hitch the body lift cant be more then 50mm looking at that tow hitch
the the person who posted the photos know weather it did have coils all round
slunnie you have all so got a sweet ride a question will 33 s with a 3 to 4 inc lift fit under the guards of a d2
all so any idear on lifting 3 to 4 inc and keeping the rear airbags
Yeah there was a fair bit of cutting to the rear guards. I was surprised the flairs went as high as they did and werent a bit flatter. I als was wondering about the winch issue though Simon...seems a shame not to finish it off.
It might be a show pony. There was a spot of dirt on it, even in the wheel arches. Either the guy cleans it meticulously or the work was just done. I think it might have been cause the Copper STTs look almost brand new!might just be a show pony...hope not, it would be pretty damn good in the mud
Anyone else think it has a bit of a nose down sort of stance?

the flares look pretty tuff but the back ones don look too well fitted.
and its gonna suck when he does a tire in the bush with no spare, or mount for it for that matter.
lets hope he joins the AULRO and answers all the question for us
