Did a LJ7 series spacer lift

[Radd Cruisers]

Had the company next door (North West Fab), make some spacers out of aluminum, turned out great.

Sorry no before or afts of the rig but it does sit nice now.

Does anyone know of a company makiing the lift kits and sold in Canada?

HI ROB, I am ordering a dobinson 2.5 kit, i have been told that it probably wont sit level, i was wondering if i could get 2 front spacers , beacause of the winch.
thanks aaron

no, the ass end sits higher...

That is one little annoyance, its not too bad though. My rear has settled a little since fitting them i think.

More annoying is the loss of about 2" of up travel all round. Not very good for a custom designed spring.

fabricated my spacer for the coils 1 3/4 inches for the front and 1 1/2 for the rear. Looks like my Simex Jungle trekkers size 33 x 10.5 x 16 will clear the wheel wells.

hummm, i am running the 34 X 10.5 X 16 with just the Dobinson springs installed on the wifes LJ78 with no rubbing... except when turning full lock right...it seems the lift has pushed the axle sideways about an inch..just enough that oneside turns at full lock and the other rubs on the lugs and the arm...spacers won't help, i would need and adjustable panhard...

Just fitted the simex, no rubbing even at articulation and full turn left and right.

can i order thru the net? i need a pair for my rear. i installed dobinsons all around but got the extra heavy duty for the front. the rear sits an inch lower than the front. (must be because of the higher spring rating (150kgs extra)

I think I miss quoted the machine shop on price, I will call the shop on monday and make sure the pricing is correct.
