There is only one 'real' 4" spring lift (ie. 4" lift springs without shackle lift) available in Aus. http://www.offroad4x4.com.au/ The lift isn't listed on their website, but they do sell it. The springs are made by Belton, the same company tht make OME, Rockcrawler and most likely a lot of other brands. Hobzee www.4h.com.au was also selling the kits on Ebay.

was thinking about that but i think it might get too high, and may get expensive.

How old/sagged are the springs you have at the moment?

I don't think cost will be an issue.
