Hi there guys/girls

Just wondering why no one wants to do a body lift for my 99 patrol? They tell me it's because of the airbags? can I not just disable the airbag and do the lift? I am also think about going to a 4 inch suspension lift I have a 2 inch lift atm with 295x75 r16 wheels but I want higher and bigger. It's sits high as it is with the big wheels and the 2 inch suspension lift and I am a little bit worried that it's going to be top heavy now but that's the price I will have to pay for a tough looking truck. I do a lot of 4x4 work and if it's going to make it to unsafe down steep crawls then I might have to can the whole idea :(

Any thoughts would be appreciated

AFAIK it's illegal to disable the airbags. Have an accident and your insurance company will probably wipe you....

You can run Q78 Swampers (36's) with a 2-3inch TJM lift. Steve Roly had that setup on his...

I read that your more interested in looks than ability, is it that important? SPS?

Well I don't do much towing...I go mud bogging heaps with the boys and go out to 4x4 parks and stuff like that. I want to get the diff higher so I guess the big wheels will do the job for that right? But is that size legal?

Thanks and have a good weekend

what size is legal - well if your car came with 31's, then 32s are legal, bigger than that requires engineers cert.

15mm bigger is all you can go legally.
