Can you give a few more details, did you use box section? if so what spec, did you have to shorten the body bolts or did 3 " give enough clearance? gearstick mods? I was looking at Bits For Vits cos it does look a quality easy solution but it is a 2" kit and if Im gonna do it would prefer to go 3" in one go...

Cheers Steve

i used 2" 4mm wall box and 1" spacers.

the stock bolts are fine to be left alone, just put some 70mm m10 bolts up through the bottom.


the gear levers just need cutting and lengthening by 3".

well the front bumper is finished and on.

rear bumper is made and just waiting for the lights.
then guess what.

the power goes out.
had to wait 4 hours for the landlord to come back so we could get into the main fuse box.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x
