My mechanic runs em on a GQ with a 5" lift and swear by em.

3rds are worth every cent, top quality product.

I actually know 2 people with 7" GU with the 3rds, and are not happy with em. Both gone back to drop boxes. Not too sure why they're not happy, I think cause they hit the chassis.

I was spewing when I first put my 3rd's arms in with a 7inch lift aswell(was actually sitting around 7'5"-8"), only because the castor was not correct and the GQ wagon was a nightmare to travel in, so after I worked what clearances I needed with the 35" muddies I reduced my lift 6" and it drives like a factory job. Drop arms are good for up to 6" lift , after that you need castor plates or bushes, which defeats the purpose. so if you want to go extreme stick with a drop box setup, if not the drop arms are money well spent.But don't expect to run the sway bar cause it rubs on the front tale shaft when you go of road, OK for normal use though.
