No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationWhat is the general consensus on this? I've used eibach lowering springs before and would highly recommend them. Didn't realise they made lift springs for the zook!
Any of you experienced members know what affect this kit will have, in terms of not fitting a slightly larger damper in addition to the lift spring kit? not to mention still utilising standard length brake hoses etc...

I have also used Eibach lowering springs on my last car, they were very good. I see the ones you have linked are a small lift:
Front Lift Height: 20-25mm
Rear Lift Height: 15-20mm
I know some people have fitted 25mm spring spacers which would give the same result. According to the Jimnybits website 45mm lift is the max with standard hoses, so would have thought 25mm lift will be fine, Not sure how the headlight leveller will be affected with the LED headlights?

Another option here from Aus (I have family out there). This is a 40mm lift kit which includes a modified cross-member and brake hoses. Tough dog seem to be raved about by the aussies on their forums, looks like a huge firm. Equates to 700 pounds Uk money!

Seems strange that it needs a cross member and abs relocation in only a 40mm kit.
Those are normally required in a 75mm kit.

The same thought crossed my mind martin. Which is why the trail master kit creates curiosity. It'd be really interesting to see that kit fitted in action. My guess would be that clearance for the prop-shaft & associated vacuum lines will be right on the limit but safe. It'd Also be great to hear the opinion in difference between the comfort range and the slightly firmer sport range.
