2" lift

[Tappet]

400KG or more! I do know the only difference between EFS +150 and 300 KG is they remove the 2nd. longest leaf. Maybe that is possible with Pedders. If circumstances change and you need it, can add the extra leaf latter. Just a thought. have chat to them.

If only after shocks, it's much cheaper to purchase Bilstein's out of the US from places like Summit Racing. Obviously need to be confident that you purchase the right ones due to name and model variations over there.
I purchased a set of 4 Bilstein 5100's for a Chev from RockAuto and they were under $500 AUD delivered, just before RockAuto was forced to charge GST.

If anyone wants a cheap set of Bilstein 5100s, I have a set that I took off my D40 when I put my adjustable Tough Dogs back on. They have only done about 40,000 km and they still work just the same as when they were new. The position of the spring base on the front struts is adjustable so that you can adjust the amount of lift. I would be pleased to get them out of my way.

Haha I'll take them!

Well, I have purchased the Raw 45mm lift kit and installed. Its a different car to drive now and handles a lot better.

im waiting on my bilsteins for my np300 which im matching with king springs and lashing out and getting the alloy upper control arms from superior engineering... was there a problem with the bilsteins...

Looks great Tonka! Gotta be happy with that.

Thanks Tappet, Very happy!! After finding out how much it costs to lift a Navara any higher than 45mm or so, I wont be going any higher with suspension. I am considering a 50mm cabin and tub lift. I am told its an easy and inexpensive thing to do and looks pretty good too.

Any thoughts from anybody on a 50mm body lift?

Hi Difflock,
From what I have learnt recently, Bilsteins are one of the best to use if you have the coin to shell out, I used the Fulcrum Raw brand shockers all round with King springs. I would only replace the control arms if I was lifting it more than the 45mm in suspension and a serious 4WDer. I am not a serious 4WDer so I lifted my D23 45mm and still had enough adjustment left to align the front end successfully again with the original control arms and bushes. But once you have the you beaut control arms and bushes ($$$$$) you can lift your Navara a few more inches. Then I am told you need diff drops and engineering etc etc.... Also, they say it is roughly $1000 per inch of lift on a Navara once you go over 2" lift. I guess thats if you do it properly. I did see a Navara like mine lifted about 6 inches or more recently and it looked amazing.
