Willem
with an ARB OME kit. It is only the standard 2 inch lift above normal but the trucks' old
suspension had sagged 3 and a half inches so the lift is a 5.5.
Runs and performs very
well altho i haven't gone offroad yet. Only one small hitch..I will have to lengthen the front diff breather hose.
Now I shouldnt be able to drag the mudflaps through the dirt at extreme crossings :o)

Gee... another low rider GQ :P
the OEM sus had sagged 3inches? Was it on the stops all the time! No wonder the Kellys sound like a frozen cat thru a bandsaw!

Gee Willem!!!
Wouldn't it have been easier and a lot cheaper to trim a couple of inches off the mudflaps:-)
