If you havent bought the tyres put the 4" lift in and get a set of 36" tyres.
Its not cool, unless it's got boost :)

yea i have done plenty of body lifts bfor on 3 of my cars and a heap of mates cars so once u get going with my loverly snap on rattle gun it doesnt take long :) body lift was a dream i had to put some heat into the 2 rear bolts to get them out tho they were a bit shitty other then that it was strait foreward fuel tank filler is perfect i loosened off steering shaft to let it slide and have had no problems as of yet

i have a query, even with larger lifts on GQ's like i have in mine, GQ's are prety much still the same height as other standard 4x4's so whats the big deal about going too high?? For example i have 7" springs in my GQ but it sits pretty much the same height as a 2" lifted GU or 80 and my mates 75 series with 35's and standard suspention has a higher roof than mine. I used to think i had a pretty high car but after comapring with others it doesnt seem to be that big anymore. lol just curious what other people think, about it. Im thinkin about going the 2" body lift too, as i dented my sills again, i really need to get the sliders on!!

I recon go the 2" lift and the 5" coils, that seems to be a popular lift.

All Patrols should have bodylifts because they are so easy to install :)
