50mm spring
struts to suit
strut top flip
15mm spacers front
30mm spacers rear
50mm extended bump stops rear
15*8's with -20 something offset
30*9.5's
front guards chopped at the rear to allow for turning

would this work you rekon ? don't want to have to modify guards anymore.

also anyone running this setup, what rear shocks ?

i'd run 20mm spacers up front.. its supposed to be a 2:1 ratio but it never works out.

im running commodore shocks in the rear. works ok, spring get close to falling out when flexed. comfort goes out the window when you run them.

running longer travel struts and a strut mount flip may put the cvs in the danger zone.

prob other stuff but i dont remember. lol

XL7 front OME springs
OME struts, top flip
decent rear shock and bumpstops
Rear GV wagon springs and spacers to level it out
13x7 with - 13 or 0 offset


youll never clear that offset without a bodylift, its the inner guard (see where I am swinging that hammer) is where the outer corner of the tyre hits

yeah that's completely bashed back to the firewall and the guard chopped back to suit before it was painted.

it already has 50mm springs in it. and i have the 50mm bumpstops here already, i don't think he wants so spend much on it because it's not going to be used for hard offroading much..

i have 15x7 rims with -12 offset with 30x9.5.
had to knock back the guard mount as royce has said and grind the front bar a bit for clearance in the front.
rear needed the arch lip nocked up a bit. a 0 offset rim would of fitted better but this is pretty gd.

i have used rancho rear shocks to suit the new length from the lift. can have a look at there catelogue and pick one which suits your compressed/extended length
