hi welcome to raging rhinos ,it depends what you want to do most do a 3 inch body lift and inch and half lift coil blocks that would get you easy on 31 inch tyres , if you want bigger tyres then you come into gearing and alot of work and cost ,

He has sorted projects out for me over the last few years and I have always been very happy with his advice and work |

i never used to be a fan of body lifts but i can see the benifits now because with the chassis lower then weight is kept low.

Leigh just body lifted my vitara and lifted the suspension aswell, I m running 31" cooper st discoverys and they are the nuts, most guys in the club go out of there way to use alloys coz of the asthetis, you shouldnt need spacers but front hub lockers are a good idea, best bet is to go up leighs and show him what you ve done and pick his brains, hes definatly the suzuki offroad oricle, Id put money on it he will tell you things you havent even concidered
