Hmm, yes, thanks Tom, I'll have a think about that too...

I noticed in this thread that standard'ish suspension is about 425mm from centre of wheel to underside of the arch... just nipped out in the cold to measure mine and I've got 495mm on the back (so about 70mm / almost 3" lift) and 485mm on the front (so 60mm / 2.5" lift) so that's not too bad... although they are newly fitted, will measure them again after I get back from a long days greenlaning tomorrow!

Yes, just got back...

And - as a teaser - the blog might include a photo of a spring lying on the floor?! :unsure:
