Hey peeps I'm new to the forum,but iv constantly looked over topics over time that have been posted here. so to get the point does anyone know of any one who had done a yj conversion to there suzi, iv lined up an engineer he seems very confident I can get it passed all legit especially as of the first of July when the legislation in qld is set to be finally relaxed we might even be allowed spoa wich would rock but I realy would like the budget flex of the yj conversion, I'm more than happy to extend the chassis and move mounts around to achieve the goal so does anyone know anyone who's done it ?
:)

theyre hilux front leaf springs - you can't buy brand new standard height leaves anymore, mine are 2" lifted ones but only running the top 2 leaves so its sagged nice and flat.

total height when i first did it was 190mm over stock, however its dropped a fair bit since then (with the leaves flattening out).
