2" body lift tomorrow

[AlexD333]

So I'm paying a visit to Elty tomorrow to attempt the body lift! :naughty

I've been soaking the mounts with spray as best I can... We will see if they undo or not

I know this is a grey area a little bit, do people need pictures and if so, let me know of what and I will do my best to snap away :thumb2

Won't take long mate.
Snap away as it helps others:thumb2

 

[Lazy-Ferret]

I need pictures of where the bumpers mount after the lift has been done.

Still, I will take pics of where the bumpers connect :thumb2

a few pics of the rear bumper mod but have yet to do anything else with the front other than what you see in the pics.

Body lift went fine with no major issues.
Had to get the angle grinder on the front bumper so it would fit back on but all in all a very productive afternoon.
Was nice to meet you Alex even though you forgot the hob nobs:lol:lol:lol

Plenty of chocolate cake bars though.
Nice to meet you Alex.

I knew there would be a bumper comment. I'm happy as ive had 3 members on here all say the bumpers aren't as extreme as they look in the pics I've taken :lol

It's getting late now and my phone is on charge so I will upload pics on seperate thread tomorrow.

Everything came out, no broken bits

Jacking up the front at first we were thinking... Why is the space not increasing.... Brake lines? Steering? Oh wait the bumpers crushing the chassis :doh :lol

 

[jims-terrano]

You like them bumpers and it's your motor Alex, just couldn't resist the wind up :thumbs

Is bloody heavy that front bumper:lol:lol
Was just catching on the front x member so we had to remove it and modify it slightly.
All good and went back on even though it took 3 of us to re fit it.
Cheers Steve for your help mate:thumb2
