Thats all id be doing for now, fit a pair of 50mm lift springs in rear and wind front up 50mm or the better way of doing it would be fitting ball joint spacers upfront.

exactly 34mm lift? lol... how do they measure that? BNT didn't used to sell Cobras - they do sell Dobis tho, which are estimated at 1.5" (35-ishmm) lift, so are you sure you didn't get Dobi's? Are they a funny green colour?

I can supply the longer travel shocks if you need em - although the stock ones would be fine for such a mild lift.
