Went for cert today, all i have to do in relation to the spring over is remount my shocks below the diff, too horizontal.. easy. Needs handbrake cables too but that is due to chucking a 94 mu diff in for the bigger brakes and handbrake. Will post measurements soon

First thought was it isnt that much but a tape measure on the bighorn said otherwise. The bighorn with lwb springs in the back and no body lift measured 500 flat so thats 150 more in the springs and another 50 in the body. With 32s on a Mu it will just go in my garage If it had the higher roof of the bighorn it would hit. Anything much bigger than 33s and it would have to park outside
