( I could not say that I ever really found the brakes wanting even with heavy bias ply 35's) Did the car ever get ...

Moph i just did that trip in a loaded hard top - mind you I went as far as Tasmania. I sat on 90, more for milage which was around the 9 litre mark.

Well first to comment on the COG vs body lift. Given that the body lift doesn’t give you much clearance advantage I don’t see why you wouldn’t get rid of it.
