there are 40mm lift kits available for them, but the main worie with the rav is the low hanging exhaust and mufler.
they go further than u would expect from a soft roader. but be gentle cos they aint built to strong.

I saw one at the Wandin show that probably represented the most anyone has done to one so far.

Full interioir cage and at least 35"s.

You're looking at approx(i.e. iwild guess) $20k+ to get your rav kitted out with that sort of lift and tyres, but to a lower standard.
