I have the same problem....getting it, I mean.
Best thing, is to go on a diet and do a bit of exercise :-)

Thank's for input Willem,but i don't have a problem with getting "it" as you say.Exercise i get, by still working 38hrs a week as brickies labourer.

Gee you are doing
well at 67. Good on ya.
Wasn't quite sure what the age had to do with the sagging
suspension.
Its the way you put the words, mate, that led to the attempt at humour.

Hi, I have heard a body lift plays havoc with your handling some thing to do with weight distribution on the chassis, then there is the insurance issues as most company's like their asset to come standard if you know what I mean!! All I can say is
shop around and weigh up the pros and cons heaven forbid you don't want parts to rattle off!
Good luck
Stefan

GQ,Stefan.Thank's for your'e input as
well. It reads very
well thought out reply & i can respect that.The weight distribution is right on the money,what used to be on my chest is now nearly on my thighs.There is not too much wrong with the chasis yet that a little lubrication once a week helps.The standard asset is still fine with a little "Viagra" now & then & i drink a six pack of "Carlton" mid strenght once a week as
well so i can stay a bit longer.I don't think i wiil have any issues with losing parts yet even though they are a little loose.

I dont know where you are but if you live in SE QLD you will not go passed Paul at
Redcliffe springsgive him a call even if just for advice.
I have had a 50mm kit put on my GU 4Years ago and have not had any problems.
Hope This Helps

Thank's BBB,but i do not think that the spring will help my plight. I do understand though that the "VIAGRA" will give me a 150mm lift for now.

I must admit no I haven't but my wife has, the only concern I have is that her breast enlargement doesn't attract as much attention when she is in her sixtys as it does now in her 40's

Worst part is how low your spare tyre drops below you chassis without one.
Good thing about bodylifts is you get longer "bolts", usually harder too.
Bodylifts do prevent you from scraping you backside along the ground.
Girls love having them done too, it makes them more "topheavy".
...and of course when you have had your bodylift you NEED bigger "rubbers".
