I've just lifted mine.. Got the 2" body lift from CB. Fitted the front half. Until the bolts in the back broke and i can't undo them now =). But the Torsion bars wound right up in the back for now. and wound the front bolts up under the spring.
Also been told fitting Land Cruiser struts in the back is a good option ?
Don't know how true that is..
I'm running 27's on 14" sunnies. But i had to modify my guards even with the lift.

Hey Brumby Kid,
The tyres u have on fourteens would not fit as it says the radis of the tyre is 15, tread is the amount of tread on it.
