Body lift for 2000 patrol wagon

Post by LINKIN »

I've got a mate who is wanting to know of some places and rough prices of where he can get a body lift done on his 2000 GU Wagon. (he lives in BRISBANE)
It currently has 4x41mm adjustable tough dog shocks and a 2" spring lift,
he's looking at getting either a 2" or 4" body lift.
Any info whether it be places of buisness to inquire or do's and don'ts
would be appreciated.

Thanks

Quite a few places dont do GU's as they're worried about the extra weight.
4"s would be too much.
I had a 2" bl on mine together with a 3" suspension which gave it enough clearence for what I needed with the 35's on. There's not much need for more than this except for looks...

When you get such big spring lifts for the Patrols, I don't know why people are still doing bodylifts?

If I did one, it would only be due to the IFS being wound right up with no travel left.. hence you have to install a body lift.
