2 inch spring lift will be ok,it's with the 3 inch lift you have to extend the panhard rods.B)

Helps if you go for bigger tyres,Handles OK in high winds,Ride is a little bit harder but I like it that way.
Will give you a 1.5 inch lift as you can see with the 205/70/15.
Spacers are from BITS4VITS or BIG JIMNY about £84+vat.

Sure about this? I have a feeling I have read somewhere that this might be individual from car to car, and different liftkits etc. Can anyone confirm that its not needed on 2"?

I have just received my 2" procomp kit, but I havent had the money for adjustable panhard rods yet. If I dont need them, I dont have to wait to install the kit! If so: Great!!!
