you will also need to extend your hydraulic clutch cable aswell and bend the transfer case shifter

as it has been said before MQ/MK unless they have totally shagged suspension don't need a body lift to fit 33's......

Try them on without the body lift and you will be suprised to see that I am right.......And if I am wrong your suspension is stuffed and you should be spending money on that and not the body lift anyway.......

My two cents....

cheers

Well I DO agree james... I intend putting them on with no B/Lift BUT.. As almost everyone else on here has said a 2" body lift will stop it rubbing at flex.. THeres the reason for the lif and also the bent side steps Ect...


But i just really need to know how round (Diameter) of alloy rod..

My 33's never rubbed anywhere and I had a sagged 2in lift on mine....

I would go with about 65mm for the blocks and I prefered metal or alloy

65mm is about the same diameter as the rubber......

You never mentioned anything about more side step clearance.......I still prefer suspension and would only go body lift to clear larger tyres than 33's....

but whatever works for you......
