I stand corrected.
Mind you £650 is still not £1200. :?
Arms etc would push price up but for just a +2" and some larger tyres all the other kit is not needed. :!:

Re your flexi brake lines if you phone dave at LLAHMA4X4 and tell him the year and model of your truck he will know what you need . I have sevaral sets of his and they are mustard. 8)

I got my kit from M&M.  I have blue springs and Pro-comp shocks cost about £250-ish.

I run 235/85 Goodyear MTR's (about £100 each) and I had to cut the rear quarter slightly.

I popped a rear spring a couple of times but have solved this by using jubilee clips around the top of the rear springs so they dont come out.  Ihave had no problems since.

I have removed my rear anti-roll bar although I am planning to add spacers and put it back.

I haven't extended the brake hoses and have had no problems although I will probably do this for safety reasons later.

The car handles fine although there is a fair bit more body roll but nothing to cause concern.

All in all a good result for minimum outlay.

The other thing I should add is that your nice new Mt tyres won't last as long running around with negative castor.  Go on, ask me how I found that out.
