Finally get around to putting mine up. Here it is post lift. 04/2000 Blenheim Silver, coils, ACE, aftermarket 7 seats.

Saved from typical Parra rd yard. Hidden heater hose plugs hid heater core leak and lead to within 6mths of purchase needing a double headgasket transplant, which it rejected and so led to a engine replacement so it's now a 4.6. Rebuilt and upgraded auto, new and increased clutches, hand built converter.
Prior to lift was pretty sad height wise, had 50mm Fnt & 35mm Rear bump stop clearances. Have never worked out the spring selection, had front orange and orange/pink. Rear purple/white & purple/orange. Stops were shagged out. Couldn't fit 3 fingers between top of tyres and arches.
