Hi all

Finally getting ready to put a lift in my jimmy and I'm thinking 60mm tough dog springs, adjustable panhard rods, offset caster bushes and rancho adjustable shocks to suit.

The rancho dealer tells me that the shock will hit the rear panhard rod and that i need to relocate the panhard mounts. Has any one done this? Can you post some pics of the mod?

Looking at the mount on the jimmy it looks like its fully welding and I don't really want to cut them off.

Cheers Brad

Don't waste your time with what your planning.... Just get the jimny bits 75mm lift with though dog panhard rods and the panhard rod mounts don't have to be moved....

Why 75mm Jimmy bits? Are the castor correction bushes suitable for a 3" lift? Is a lift that high legal in oz?

Was thinking ranchos because it gives you more options. Soft for 4wding, stiffer for around town and everything in between.

No 3" lift is not legal....nor is a 60mm....jb lift gives you more stuff for your money....rancho shocks are pure wank factor....also dnt bother with castor bushes....just get new castor corrected arms instead if you get a 3" lift.

Why are people recommending tough dog panhards over the Jimnybits ones?

I got the full kit from JB including arms - just interested why the TD's are preferred?
