Right its that time...
We go some big tyres which kinda fill up the wheel arch :shock:
So for a standard, good lift for a good price, where would you recomend us?
-
I used Britpart 2" lift kit from paddocks.
Comes with 4 springs and 4 procomp shocks for about £210. You may need new front turret rings as a couple of studs usually snap, paddock can supply these or you can go to landrover, about £6.50 each.
Its quite an easy job until somthing snaps, rounds, goes wrong etc.
Good luck!

I got my kit from www.mm4x4.com this included the turret rings, as i had read allot of accounts of them breaking, and extended brake hoses. I also wanted Pro comp shocks and these worked out the best price at the time, but prices are very similar. They were very helpful, and a speedy delivery too.
Have fun fitting :D

just done mine last week.
Paid 100 for mine plus 30 to get the springs blasted and painted.

Got mine from Mill Services, he will make to any length you need. I have +4 on the front and the rear is nearly 1 metre long. remember if you have a +2 lift and later fit -2 turrets +2 hoses will not be long enough. One other thing is you need to look at is the end fittings, ABS and non-ABS are supposed to be different (male or female). Land Rover being Land Rover mine is a non ABS model with ABS fittings!

If your not sure give them a call, quote your chassis no. and requirements and let them do the rest. Just be careful when you fit them the ends can be very delicate!
Good luck
