Title: Where to buy a lift kit??
Post by: lucky on August 13, 2007, 13:40:08: Hi,

Could any one tell me where the best place is to buy a small lift for my XJ....

I found a 1.75" lift for Â£140, but was after a 2" - 3" lift but I have been quoted Â£1,100 for a 3" lift!! is that about right??

Also any tips for fitting the lift would also be great

Any help appreciated :D

Don't be put off by the perceived hassle - there's no more hassle than ordering from this country and you'll save a packet too.

Yup, Try http://www.rocky-road.com/xjbudget.html

Had loads of stuff off these guys, and their service is great.

I bought the 2" buget lift. Â£70 plus delivery and import duties / tax's, worked out at about Â£125. It was very easy to fit, and didnt break the bank.
