Heya all, have just purchased a sagged 92 ti lwb wagon. CHosse the dobinsons manily as I get them at a great price.

So my 3" coils and springs should be here by the weekend.
I have done the Searching and gerneally found that i probly need to extend sway bar links. Possibly castors bush's as well (will wait and see after the lift).

On my TI - It has the factory rear swaybar disconnect, will this cause a drama? best to take it out or leave it? mite be good to have ?
And either just sleeve the front links or purchase the extended ones.

Will be fitting myself at work, any tricks or dramas to look out for? And im gussin will take bout 1-2hours to change all 4 corners?

IS there much else im missing?

Extended brake lines are avilable if i need them on hand so thats no a problem either.

Cheers

I got rid of mine...

all depends on how much time it will spend on road V offroad...
Swaybars are good for hanging plants on.

I like the idea of the disconnects but the pin will need to be lengthened (modded) for it to work with a 3" lift.

If you want to get rid of the factory disconnect and you want sway bars, you will have to get a part from the wreckers for the new sway bar link pin to bolt to.

all in and done with no apparent dramas, pins, brake lines, etc all seem to be holding up fine. only time will tell.

actual lift once car is sitting in is round the 78mm mark so just under 3", but flex seems to be fair good for wot it is.

cheers
