from my undrstanding there arent any blocks, just rubber washer type things that stop metal to metal contact

marks 4wd sell a kit for this, which whilst not as cheap as you could manufacture yourself will already to comply to all states regulations regarding body lifts

i know in QLD they require full documentation on what you did etc, if you say "im using makrs" it sure is simpler.

hey mate, couldnt see in your thread what material used, did you go alloy or something else?

i think i will go alloy as it seems that other materials wont be legal.
