So let's have your input guy's.

Series 70:

Series 84:

(I know there is some question relating to the stuff from R-Road but I've called them, and sent pics & done all I can to ensure that I get what I'm after)

Not an option, for a few reasons. 1st is stability when lifted this high (better to have a wider track), 2nd cant run 265/70/16's on stock rims with my lift (the problem is up front only: contact with upper ball joint - even in a straight line & I wont run wheel spacers), 3rd looks like crap with my lift (I tried), 4th they cost too much, 5th can't aford it as they cost too much, 6th I don't want to :lol:

I will think of some more :wink:

That all depends on if you have the same coils as I got, I think Stu is selling 3 different rated coils. This measurement is from the engineer not me.

Too bad he dosent sell a ladder with his lift kits :lol:

Black is still hot.

Now call me mad, call me crazy, BUT.

If you are going to all this trouble, I'd, get the Chrome ones, THEN, get the centres colour powder coated Graphite to match in with the original Jeep colour schemes.

That would look COOL...

Black all the way regardless of style. I chose the 70s because you don't see those too often, at least I don't.

This is not for fun, I'm not looking for way's to spend more cash :lol:

Spoke to Wooders today, he's got R-Road on a black list..... and he does this for a living. Now I'm a little concerned.

Chris,
summitracing have them... and i'm pretty sure they ship internationally... might be worth while emailing them as they're a decent size company in the USA, so they're not a drop shipper.

or maybe someone it the usa might come to your rescue

cheers
