Range Rover Blues:
If you aredoing a body lift too then bear this in mind when cutting the chassis off, you can lift the rear crossmember up t the new body height and save another inch of clearence, plus the bumper will fit back on neatly.

either way you'll be having an SVA. If you want to keep your reg number then you'd better get it on a cherished transfer NOW.

stuvy:
iv already looked in to the SVA so yepp will be saving the reg number,

i have a 2" suspension lift on it at the moment and was looking at the Gwyn Lewis challenge suspension kit,

do you need any head lamp mods if you have a body lift?

Range Rover Blues:
I think with the headlamps you'll find the saem as with a suspension lift, they get worse the further from the floor they are.  I know on some of those Renault 4x4 trucks that they move the headlamps to the bumper, I don't know if it's a legal requirement or just because they are rubbish but on main beam you'll want them reaosnably high up or you'll see lots of shadows on the road surface.

stuvy:
I have roof spots x2 and floods x2 i dont wanna go all christmas tree and have lights everywere though!

you mean this type of truck, a giant of the ford variety
