You might want to do the body lift before the bar work

yep probably best to sort out all your body lift stuff before you do the barwork so you dont have to get it all redone again to match the bodylift


edit* opp's missed nismos post above

Like the above post's do body lift then bar work, as I found out.

I did a 75mm body lift all is sweet apart from the steering this needs to be made longer were it comes out of the power steering box and in the slip joint. and the mounting of the radiator needs to drop down, everything else I just made it with the brake lines and wiring was not an Issue.

My friend on here madlux did my bar work and I must say he did a great job on it.
Cannot get many after market stuff for the Isuzu Mu or you have to do some very extensive searching on the internet to find something also depends on what part you want.
All aftermarket stuff that is avalible easy is FOR NISSAN, TOYOTA, JEEP etc
I suggest go to the Club Isuzu website lots of info on there for the Mu, Bighorn etc.

Cheers
