2 inch is just a rough guide.... the actual queensland rule WAS 30 percent increase in bump space increase.

I have heard from 2 people now that some time in late october the laws on allowable tyre sizes will change in Queensland. But its been vague both times, and I really don't expect anything usefull.

But find what the factory bump stop clearance is. I tried to find it for a Cruiser and ended up hitting a brick wall every time.
I was surprised that a body lift and a spring lift can be done together. It isn't as bad as I thought.
Be interesting to see the new laws. And if they send me an update for the Code of Practice for light vehicles that I bought 4 months ago.

Cheers
