Hi GMan
For 4 inches, what else do you need besides caster correction plates. Is that all there is to this lift?

Hi Alex
You will also need adjustable panhard rods and gearbox spacer to get prop shafts back to correct angles. Longer brake hoses and diff breathers, as well as extend the sway bar links. Lastly you will also have to fit brake proportional lift plate.
No adj panhard rods available, so will need custom manufacturing.

Re: 4" INCH COILS AND SHOCKS
All of that trouble for an extra 50mm of lift. So probably not worth it?
From this clip, it is clear that one can get these accessories in Australia.

For those of you that assume there is no adjustable panhard rods available, I keep them in stock.
