yeah all mods r engineered, cheers. The only thing is, i think it has slightly higher springs, how much higher than stock are you allowed to go without having it engineered?

Interesting, i got a hilux with 3" Body lift and 35" tyres, it was engineered about 6 years ago, and in the report it clearly states all these mods are engineered,

With the new laws, is this still legal?
