To the best of my knowledge, nobody in Australia makes or sells body lift kits for Mitsubishi 4wds.

What would you need in this kit? I just bought some bolts + nuts + washers for my Pajero along with some body blocks and fitted it all up myself. Wasnt very hard at all.

what about extending hoses/lines shift lever/gear levers?? Plenty of small things that need checking.

like i said if it was only a small lift you prob wouldnt have to modify to much. over say 1" 1/2 im sure you would have to look at brake lines shifters fuel filler etc...

I did it to a NL, the bumpers needed lifting/cutting as they still scrapped on my 35s. The gearstick and gear leaver both needed cutting and lengthing. The fan shroud needed removal(scrubbed on the clutch fan). The top rad hose rubbed a little on the engine cover so I removed the cover and it was fine.

im planning to run 33/12.5 , so planning on a 2inch body lift with 2inch spring/tortion lift which should be fine. it would be great to talk to someone that has done a challenger to work out the specific problems before i attack it, as i dont really want the car off the road for more than a weekend.
