dude, just get 4 2" lifted king springs, you don't need the body lift.

you can run 35" tyres on a bundy with 2" lift, but you may get some rubbing..

to fix = cut the guards, or get custom backspaced rims.

Go to a bolt store and a alloy place and get some bodylift blocks on the cheap..... It should be pretty easy.

I got the 2" Kings springs for my Vitara and although it's good for clearance and cheap I regretted it in the long run - they were too hard. This may not be the case with yours - but try and find out if the spring rate is much higher than standard as it will limit your flex.

I think my Kings springs were about $225 the set so I think it would work out to a little bit over $300 for my 3 1/4" lift, but I didn't get shocks with it.

U don't need to body lift a Bundera to run 35's!!!!!
As Robbie said a set of aftermarket springs will bolt straight in and the 35's will only rub on the rear inner guard but who cares, u r never(rarley for some) going fast when on full flex.

Don't buy the lift blocks and hopfully this saves u some cash dude!!!!

Set of springs and shockers from Repco or Pedders $400-450

body lifts are cheap mine only cost me 50 bucks all up
just take out the bolts and buy new ones that are 2 inches longer and u can get blocks made up from clark rubber or somewhere else cheap as (Danstoyowagon did this all for me) only takes a little bit of time to install as well body lifts are value for money

if u are interested in getting a body lift
dont get steel or alloy
they make that much farkin noise
get a bit of urethane etc and just turn it up on a lathe
i did one for a mate and it cost me less than 40 bucks
25 for the bolts and he had a stick of urethane lying round and we just turned it on the lathe
altho it took bout 2 weekends to install
lotta booze involved tho
