did my own 50mm lift.
Requires custom shroud or lowering of radiator. Also requires complete disassembly of radiator, grill & indicators to gain access to front bolts. You cannot buy a bolt for front the required length and I ended up using a length of 10mm threaded rod with a nut tacked on to it. I then used the bolt removed from the front at the rear.
Marks kit I believe consists of steel blocks and I wouldn't go there.
Bull bar requires lifting also and rear bar looks disgusting as a bonus.
I would recommend a steering shaft extension (Snake Racing) and would also recommend a 40 mm lift in lieu of 50mm to avoid this and the issue with the short lever and having to remove at least one of your transmission surround boots or modifying the short lever.
My best recommendation would be to go to a 4"
suspension lift instead of 2" +2 inches of bodylift.Live the life you love -
