ok sweet no need to extend brake cables and stuff

Nah they all work fine - I don't think they even needed to be changed on Lapsed's wagon which has a 4" kit (somebody correct me on that if im wrong tho)

3 is fine with brakes and cables... maybe need to trim a little more off ya radiator hoses but unlikely.

Your exhaust will sit 1 inch lower too... a lot of people get there exhausts modifed so they are up nice and high when they are happy with the size of there lift.

yer my 4 inch lift caused my zorst to sit very low (as some peolpe saw)
also the top n bottom radiator hoses need adjustin the gear stick sat quite low n thats bout it

tristan

Ps bolt ur 3 and 2 inch together n make a 5 inch that would be cool but very very weak

rigby your car is fine...although we did have big issues with your 4x4 linkages...hmmm...but everything should be fine...bar the exhaust may need some attention

oh n yer i cant select reverse in low range and is hard to select in fwd

but i think that is all

I will bet my last remaining nut that your reverse problem is just a sloppy linkage.
