Hey Guys,
Just bout to get my 79 series back on the road after many engine issues, and am looking to do the lifted suspension swap. I have coils up front and springs out back.
1- I was thinking of doing a 2inch lift, but i am running 35s, The question are, What suspension setup would you suggest/used?
2-What brand and best place for price to buy for?
3- Aswell with the extended shackles i am thinking of making my own but would like to get the greaseble pins from? I use my ute for pig hunting and weekend 4wdriving. but i do, do a bit of driving out west and up north. Any info would be awesome
Thanks chris

Dobinson make good stuff. I would just get the correct height springs without extended shackles so if you want a 3inch lift buy three inch springs rather than 2inch springs and extended shackles.
Do you have a cab lift? I would say 2inch suspension with 35s will rub. My 60 had 3"suspension and 2" body and it would still just touch with 35s.

No more work that I can think of. Unless your talking 4" or above you should be sweet

Hop on supeiorengineering.com they have hole bolt in kits. Bloke at work has a 5" lift with superflex arms for the front. Easy clear 35s and looks tuff. Really stable
93 duel cab lux. 2.8 TD twin locked. Big tyres, little lift. Wide stance. Barwork and build up under way
