2" body lift kits

[makeitfit]

Just found this company doing spectacular deals on body lift kits and associated goodies http://xpajun.com/product_info.php?cPath=53&products_id=128
£63 is damn cheap, I've been costing me more than that just to get the spacers made up :doh
They also do gear lever extensions too for £10 inc postage.
Hey ho

good link, so please remind us, what sort of increase
in the tyre department could we see from this kit
leaving the suspension as stock ride.

thinking would any further adjustments to the flaps
and arch seems benefit or are they all going to be up
out of harms way with the body lifted.

guessing frame will only be lifted by tyres the amount
of towing drop plate needed will reduce too.

I guess that if stock suspension and 2" body lift you'd be good to go with 33s. and probably keep your flaps :thumbs
Towing height will be the same as it's the body going up not the chassis.
Ground clearance is only gained under the axles by fitting bigger tyres. A body lift is a cheap easy way to do this by creating space for the bigger tyres.
Combine a body lift and a suspension lift then 35s are an easy fit, but gearing goes out the window. You'll also need more power to push 35s at any sort of speed:naughty

but towing height will change with 33s from rolling height increase
of the tyre, but agree wont be as much as if chassis was lifted
by suspension and the tyre..

plus CoG will be little better as frame and drive train not as elevated.

one day maybe, when this truck needs refurb and is cascaded to toy
duty by upgrading to one of last t2's produced as main road car!

Yeh but just a piddly amount and easily fixed if you're fussy enough
2" increased hitch height just needs a 2" drop plate
