Jacket_1985 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 4inch lift is the right height in a GU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toppy Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Yeah that's what I'm thinking as I use mine as a daily as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatboyz inc Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Nice wagon, I am with you guy's on the 4" being a safe hight lift for a daily, have you fitted a winch to your Xrox bar yet? I am interested as we went to fit my mate winch to his only to find we need to get a winch plate to fastern the winch to as I am not willing to take the risk pf mounting the winch to the bar as it is only 5mm thick and I would mount a winch to anything under 10mm. Interested to hear what everyone else thinks to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toppy Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I don't have a winch yet but I will be getting one soon though. I'll have to sus out that plate issue. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tailpipez Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 nice truck man. that clunk that your talking about in the front end, is it when you turn your steering left and right ? i have same set up with 5" lift and when i turn side to side i get a loud clunk from what i can see it looks like the springs reseating no really sure tho. what do you think of those s Amarda extreme shocks? are they real soft or do they hold the weight of the truck and what length are they at?

Toppy Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Thanks mate, actually up for sale but the only reason i'd let go of it would be for a TD GQ. To be honest I am unsure of the length. the clunk is when load is taken off the front end then back on, almost sounds like shocks but they are pretty new. I love the Amaradas but I think they need to be re-valved, the front end is a bit too soft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
