It has probably been asked before, but search has found nothing for me on GV Body Lifts. (within Oz at least) I am looking to fit a 2" body lift to complimemt the calmini 2.5" suspension lift that will go in very soon!! But it seems Aussie 4x4 folks don't want to touch the subject!!! So who has done it? who do you recommend and what is the difficulty rating of a body lift on a 99 GV? Cheers Dossy!! |

Yes. it's the full kit. I bought it from another contact (good mate) that bought it but then wrote off his GV before he had a chance to fit it, he now has a Hilux. The kit is 5 months old, but has never been fited to a vehicle!!! He just wanted it gone, and I was in the right place at the right time!!!!!

The zook is off the road for a few months courtesy of a strut mount that has broken for the second time in 12 months. (no-one including the suspension provider can offer an explanation for that, but thats another story!!!) But between the calmini lift and the body lift, I hope o have her back on the road by January. Sooner if possible. but if we have to pioneer some of this stuff, it is likely to take longer....

No i don`t mate, if you dont use the control arms give me a holler. In bit`s for sale is some body lift kits, not for gv`s tho, just asked if or when he`ll do them. Steve. |

The GV lift is the same as the Vit with one major difference, the steering column is vastly different requiring a large spacer. Nathan had his cut and shut but says a 25mm extension is what's required. |

You can put a 1" body lift in it with no mods at all. This is mine with 1" body lift, 2.5" Calmini, runnning 31" tyres (255/70 R16) 
Or you could go this way
