Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hey guys i just installed a 2" lift to my gq shoryy. dropping it from 4". it looks really low. how do i tell if it really is a 2" lift compared to a stock standard patrol. how do i measure it? Whats the best way to measure your lift?

i dont like the way people measure from the rim to the guards as its not too accurate ie some have flares, some have cut guards, some have 15"-16" wheels. is a good indication of the size of your lift the distance of your bump stops?

bumpstops best indicator I reckon.
95% sure that stock is 60mm front and 75mm rear. Im sure someone on here will be able to confirm this (or not)

Low trucks rule

can anyone confirm this to be 100% sure?

not when you drive rock they dont

just measure from the ground to the lowest point of your rear and front bar, thats how i did it

2 inches, some one had to say it

Most so called 2" lifts for the shorties are not 2" lift. I don't sell what is in the book for this reason but coils that are slightly taller. Unless you have a lot of weight, don't make the mistake of getting LWB coils otherwise you will be stuck with a rough ride.

I go by 60-65mm bump stop clearance at the front for a standar height vehicle. It depends on what Nissan put in them from the factory.

yes, 60mm front bumpstop clearance is what i got told by superior

it might seem obvious to some but make sure the bumpstops are in good condition when using this measurement.
It is very common for older GQ etc to have broken the bottom section off the bumpstop from constant hammering and this will add up to 50mm to the overall distance

thnaks guys

Is 75mm for the rear correct?
