another lift question
muddymud:
has any one got any pics of there spring spacer set up. also if i just chuck some 2" box section under the springs what can i do with the shocks?
Cheers,
Nick
turbonutter:
the fronts easy
just unbolt the spring seat from the axle and the shock and bolt the 2" block to the axle
drill holes in the top of the block to bolt the spring retainer to and hole to bolt the shock in
the rear u will need to get drop shock mounts or longer shocks
im sure if u look around u will find second hand shocks ect for not alot of cash
Range Rover Blues:
If all you do is lower the standard shock by 2" though, you get no extra articulation so all you win is 2" under the sills. In time you want to be fitting longer rear shocks plus you need to check that the coils don't become coil-bound if you use spacers.

does this look any good?
all I'm looking for is a cheep lift just to get the truck up out of the mud a bit, and fit some bigger tyres. I'm not to worried about articulation as i want to change my truck in a few months.
Cheers Nick
turbonutter:
it dont look to bad
thing is if your thinking about changing it in a few months why waist cash on this ?
just save up a bit and do it right once , u think your doing it cheep but in the end u spend more
keep a eye on ebay , im sure cheep shocks and spring will turn up
