prolly buy a 4x4 that can do that near standard
Looks like just longer leaves in the rear ~$300, front wound up -free, remove any swaybars/panhard rods - free
Snorkel could be ~$150-$200 custom from a muffler shop, or home-made PVC ~$80 i'd guess.
Simex centipeded are the tyres i think, ~200 odd for 31"s??

They are actually "missing link" style shackles. AKA revolvers shackles.

Doesnt look like theres much room for those bloody tyres up front !
Whats the go with these revolver shackles? legal? How can you tell just by looking at the car that it has them? Im guessing you've probably seen a write up on it or know the guy?
Cheers for any info you can pass along
Still cant decide if I wanna mess around with my roza's suspension, havnt gotten it bogged or hung up on any of the stuff I drive yet so not sure if its really worth it or not. I guess I just need to drive some crazier stuff!

Yeah.. thats mad flex in the rear end!
Grab some lifted leaves for the rear, drop shackles, new rims, 30" MTRs, wind up the front torsions, get new shocks and she'll be apples
Not sure about the legality of drop shackles RB.. I think they may be alright as long as they're in the locked position when onroad... as in that position they are no diffrerent to stock shackles, you just unlock them offroad.. but they dont give any lift... just allows leaves to drop more

IIRC Jeep CJ front shackles fit. Andy got his from Mike Hennessy who, I believe got 'em from the States.
They are REVOLVER shackles which are better than straight drop shackles.

For any narrow track owners- the spring width is different, so these won't fit.
