theres abig lift kit being made in aus for L200's somewhere but cant find any details on the web. can anyone shed any light on who mite be making it? ive been told its an australian suspension company...
The more I look at those images, the more I think that the L200 is a UK vehicle, try searching the UK/EU for teh lift and see how you go, not that I reckon any sane person would want it in their rig. . . .
The torsion bar angle would only be like that if the is some special suspension components in the front, IE whole front end dropped down.
yes it has secial suspension components in the front, also replalaced thicker torsion bars

yep its a uk truck a mate of a mate has spoke to him and the kit deffo comes from aus,
Not 100% sure, but a company over here in Australia makes a 5inch lift kit for the pajero, so it may be the same kit as that, which lowers the front diff crossmember and lower control arms, and replace upper control arms.
great lookin truck ay, the suspension is a 3inch lift i have same shackles an they're a great deal. Fitting easy, torsion bars up front need adjusting big time, be patient! Or you'll kill the bushing between torsion bar and chassis.. Uho!
The rest looks like a 5inch body lift (not tackled this yet so unsure) an 31'' tyres. All in all not a great deal of work, exhaust etc is bog standard for the 2.5 td. looks like an 06 manufactured / 55 plate supercab, again same as mine, love the rear bumper any ideas who and where anybody?? Anyway, if anybody wants the shackles i know the chap who makes em so get in touch and i'll get you a good deal.
forgot to mention also the ball joints up front need flipped for another 1.5 inches or so and the transfer box shimmed down to line the props etc. Needless to say also need camber etc sorting or you'll be getting some nice vibrations over 80.. Sounds alot but not too much work and well worth it. Suspension lift alone made a mega difference.. Stiffer, brakes harder (mines front end low) and accelerates harded. Winner! Not saying i'm the don and know it all at all, but the question was asked and hopefully now answered(ish).
Lookout for updates soon as i'll be airbrushing a grave scene around the bottom of my truck, will list some pics etc of process and finished truck happy off roading!
look at the angle of the torsion bars
happy off roading!
