I've just fitted EFS 3 inch coils and will do the shocks soon. I have adjustable panhards but I also have a 2 inch bodylift. I've also got a long range tank.

You can go up to around a 4inch lift without adjustable panards but you will need castor correction. It is advised that you get extended brake lines which I do in the braded stuff aswell which is DOT approved. You might have the springs on the wrong side of the vehecle unless they are old or just crap if your truck is saging on the one side permanantly. Give me a call in the new year or send me a pm. I deal with efs and Dobinson

they are new springs and its the back springs that are lower than the front pair by bout 30mm measured from the ground to top of flares . want to run 35's under it if possible running 32 a/t at present

Rear sags. New. Not good. I guess you are not happy with the height at present. What sort of height would you like to go to with your rig or are you just wanting to go high enough for 35's..

Take the springs back and get a set of EFS.

I had a set of 'brand x' coils fitted supposedly a 50mm lift. The first issue was a bent rear driver's coil within 2 weeks. This was replaced under warranty no question. Second issue, after about 3 months the driver's side sagged 20mm, remember this was a 50mm lift.

I then fitted a set of 75mm EFS. Truck went up 50mm in the front and 70mm in the rear over the lift offered by the ‘brand x’ 50mm lift.

I was offered a 75mm replacement set of coils from 'brand x' but I opted to get my money back. Only got cost price refund and not what I paid. At least I now have a great lift in the truck now.

wnna get it high enuff to not scrub too bad with 35,s the car is in a1 cond so im not keen on cutting panels till i bend 1 maybe the efs springs and 2" boodylift may be the way ? anyone on southside do that round redlands area ? daily driver so it needs to be a bit practicable as missus drives it too !

Ya see, some people with 6in sus/2in body still have 35's scrubbing...
others with 4/2 still have scrubbing.. even with Yota offsets.

I had 6/2 and my 33's scrubbed like little bitches, the JTs were worse...

Good luck...

ummm, from my fading memory i think the guards are cut higher at the front ... try measuring at the front and rear of the sills to ground.

Blkmav - Granting wishes are you???!!!

Bilby go to artic cool treads i got my 4 inch lift from them back in may. the full setup installed with ajustable panhards and castor plates $1500. to date i havent had any problems with the product or the instalation. I curently have on a set of 35" MTR's which rub on the back of the guards a bit and the front tyers will rub on the back of the guard. this is easliy fixed with radius arm spacers.

oh you will have to remove your factory mudflaps, reverse your rear tailshaft to stop it hitting the back crossmember and notch your gearbox crossmember to stop the front tailshaft from binding onit at full droop due to the awsome flex you can achieve.
