Yeah its got me buggered on a gravel track swerved to miss a roo hit a ditch and that was it all over rover. He had 33" A/T 2-3 inch suspension

Just a friendly warning, the insurance companies look at some of these forums.

also the last thing they usually ask for BEFORE handing over the $$ is a copy of your driving record.. so if hes lied to them, then fubar.

Mine is a 6inch suspension lift.

Its from www.bigballsoffroad.com fitted by Rod McCormack of Total 4wd Center in Epping. ROd still does work on my truck, his work is brilliant, he also works no Lukes Mav from here.
