its a nov 2007/08 walkabout DX 3l diesel with steel nissan bullbar, ironman 12000pnd winch, roolites, sidesteps and rails plus cargo barrer in the back
I dont carry much in the back yet but i will get a set of draws at some stage I do a bit of towing 1000kg + sometimes but not every day weekends mainly
at the moment ive still got the standard gear in and its lowered the front with the bar and the winch.
so thats why im looking at 2 inch HD kit
Anyway im off camping for two nights now so i will check here when i get back to see what you have to say
also im in hobart incase you need to find out postage
cheers

Price is $370 for the set of 4 including freight to Tasmania.
On the front there are 2 different coils that will give you the right height. You can choose between a softer ride or normal ride. OR very soft but won't recommend.
On the rear I would recommend a ute rear coil just because it will drive nice when empty but will carry the heavier loads a bit better then the normal coils.
I would recommend Lovells shocks to go with the coils.
Have a great trip.
