Looks great, an incentive for me to do something to mine.
Great job, I suppose you can now get stuck in deeper mud

my mate bought this kit from him in the end, the bushes flogged out really quick and were a prick to replace, had to make a bush to suit, and the shocks arnt very good, hes looking at going for a full long arm kit now from a different brand. not only that after the lift he had death wobble which took a bit to get rid of, now runs a modified GQ front panhard rod.

The truck has long since gone, the kit i cant remember how much it was (something tells me 2300?) the rims are still in my garage and the kit went to the north island.
(the pictures where from 2010 and the truck was some 2010)
