I've taken my L322's laning. Both were fine *without* any mods. However for peace of mind I generally run them on 255/55/R19 MT/R's and have my rear recovery point fitted.
Pics in gallery if you are doubting ;-)

You shouldn't need to raise the suspension really - if you wanted to you could put spacers in, but the easiest way is to recalibrate the ride height settings on the ECU. I wouldn't bother though.
Tyres will be your biggest problem. Not sure on sizes but you might find out on www.landywiki.co.uk. BFG MTs are decent tyres. If you're using it on-road too and you don't want to swap tyres, you could consider BFG All Terrains instead.
Watch out for the trim (spoilers, plastic bumper trim bits) getting ripped off, or take an angle grinder to them in advance. Other than that, just remember the diffs are on the wrong side of the vehicle...
Thrasher:
Diffs? Diffs? :lol:
It's actually quite nice not having them (well not having them exposed!) .... oh and a front bumper designed to be taken apart to go offroad!!! <faint>

if u replace the air springs witha coil kit and put a 2 inch spacer underneath 235/85/16 fits easy
