How do I adjust brake bias after a 2" lift on a GU?

[Blackprince]

I have just given my GU wagon a 2" lift, I was wondering if anyone can explain how to adjust the brake bias? as I imagine it will now be out of adjustment. I have looked at what seems to be the valve unit but I can't for the life of me work out how to adjust it to give me more braking on the back wheels under load.

I asked the same question when I did mine and the general consensus seemed to be don't worry about it. That came from the people who sold me the springs ( they fit heaps) and this board to. I would imagine it only becomes a concern if you carry a lot of weight (at rear) and/ or a much bigger lift. I notice some lift kits have an extension bracket in them.

i would worry about as i had woeful brakes that tended to dive.
I went to redlands 4wd and they fitted a plate problem fixed

Is there anyone in Vic who could supply such parts for the mod? Regards

I complied the GU Bible and didn't come across this issue; this to me is usually an indication that there is no need for this to be done.

i wouldn't bother but either replace the bolt with allthread and plenty nuts and adjust manually or

raise the spring perch up. just undo the 2 bolts bolt on a strip of steel say 20x6x long enough and work out hoe to make it 2 inches higher. so its only 2 bolts you need and a strip of steel with 4 holes

Actually guys there is a lot of adjustment on the bracket once you undo the bolts. I found it made quite a bit of difference between the front/rear braking balance to do it. It had been too much on the front brakes before I adjusted it.

The fronts were locking up and the ute tended to be poor in braking.

Have a goodn
