The front already looks lower?
If your putting a bull bar on you might need spacers in the front to make the car level.

How high is the lift and what brand? Still looks fairly tame. How much did you gain over standard ?
The front should be a little lower. Ride and handles MUCH better
Also, what happen when you put max weight in the tray?

Pfft people don't lift their cars for comfort mate.

Im not sure on the height difference its supposed to be a 40mm dobinson lift.
It rides so much better then stock. Has got rid of the body roll and seems firmer in cornering which i like. Cant go any bigger without replacing the front upper control arms

Another lift I found today. I'm leaning towards this or the superior engineering 3' lift in the next month

If you read my quote I said the Dobinson kit OR the superior engineering kit they are developing that is 3'. Nothing about the Dobinson kit being 3'

️ I was quoted $2k fitted for that kit. But I think someone is working on a group buy to make it cheaper

I did my suspension. Went for these + airbags. Also adjustable sway bar rods are available.

A couple of pics. 54 mm in the front and 52 mm in the rear. Will settle a little. Pretty happy so far.

54mm in the front is a good gain. Any issues with the UCAs hiting on strut tower? Did you need offset bushes to get correct alignment? Or a panhard rod? Cheers.

Nope we did not need any of that mate. It has settled now and I am guessing it will be around the 51mm on the front and about 48mm on the rear.
Nothing hitting the strut towers and i have taken it on some fairly rough trails and so far so good.

Sammy,
Any pics of the whole car so we can see the overall result?
Why did you end up with Dobinson instead of the Fulcrum kit?

Went the Dobinsons cause the clown at Fulcrum never rang me back and stuffed me around.
Wanted them fitted to go away at Xmas and obviously he didn't need the money.
Sure here is the truck:

Very nice 
You should lift the front higher though so it's an even ride
Can you tell us how much the Dobinson kit was?

Front shouldn't be lifted level as you need the rake for handling/steering/braking performance due to weight balance onto the front, and means the back doesn't sag below the front when weight is put in.

Each to their own I guess, I like mine level and never had an issue in the past

Yeah we carry a fair bit of load quite often so dont want it sagging haha! Level does look lots better though, specially gives a good advantage in approach angle. Yeah thats just what we have been told by suspension specialists, so it's all we got to go off, never tried anything different hahaha, each their own definitely.
