Nice :)

How much did the kit cost if you don't mind me asking? And is the cost with shocks and struts?

I retained the original front strut

front springs were 220 AUD

put a longer rear shock OME they are 139 AUD each

Rear springs were cheap as bought from a guy that put a Stiffer spring on the rear not long after he got the light duty ones

Did you end up using any of those Daystar spacers you where talking about. Also, have you driven atleast a few miles before taking the post-measurments. All in all it looks great. Just some new meats and your ready to roll.

I have the same setup as you. Medium in the front and light duty in the back. I ended up with about 2.5" in the rear and about 1.5" in the front. Had to add some spacer to the font to level her out.

Very nice mate!

That's a decent amount of lift you've gained. Let us know how much it settles, and how much the new rails (which I can't wait to see BTW!) weight it down. It'd be a shame not to get some chunkier tyres now you've got all that extra space under the arches.
;)

You might also want to take off the rear mud-flaps before (as happened to me) a friendly rock takes them off for you, along with half the wheel arch flare.

Mate,

Just be careful and watch the CV's.

And shouldn't you be calling it a ODAYME lift
