where to buy bodylift block material (sydney west)

Post by James_Murray »

I am looking for body lift blocks - 30mm. I am fine to cut and drill them if I can get the rod. I am looking for the white plastic stuff, think it is called UPHW?

If I buy them from a 4wd shop, I have been quoted $30ea - not a chance and I need 13 of them.

Thanks, James.

Right, so I have decided to go for the plastic ones - mainly to minimise any squeeks.

They tel me the pick is the black material, I am happy with that for the simple reason in will look more factory, but they say it is tougher stuff compared to the white - is this going to cause a problem?

Thanks, James.

no probelm with the tougher material, you need it rigid so you can torque down the bolts correctly. 13 for your rocsta :shock: thats a lot. Can't criticise the koreans logic though.
