picking my GQ tomorrow and will get suspention next week. i was looking at either a two or three inch lift. but cant decide on what size. the vehicle will be used for camping and mild-medium 4wding. no comps or anything.
Bearing in mind i live in qld, what would be your sugestions? also, can people post pics of GQ with two and three inch lift?
thanks

2" is the easiest just bolt in & forget.$750
3" requires sway bay links & possiable castor kit
3" $800 links $60 pr castor kit $120
cheers mate

adding to what john said, you will hardly notice teh difference in a 2 or 3 in lift to look at. all kits are different in their measurement of lift.. some 2in lifts are more than other 2in kits..

keep it as low as you can and trim the guards to fit the rubber you want, that gives you a more stable truck offroad and no need for caster correction

insane is right

trim the guards to suit the tyre you want

so 38s argh 5inch spring 2inch body and trim guards to suit coming up
thats what i run with the trim guards

but not the 38s yet still on 35s waiting to find an old set to give a trial run

but I have no problems

but thats later go a soft 3inch and the biggest tyre you can afford
but not advised to go silly with height if live down the gold coast as I believe the blue patrol arnt happy with hieght and have being doing blits

(but up to 4 inch total lift is legal so use it all and make it work)
