right guys this might not work for you, but has for me. got some box section just under 2" x 3", drilled straight through it, undone all my body bolts removed the lower bush, nkeep the washer, the bolts are just long enough to go through the box and chassis and washer. theres enough thread to get the nut on and do up. the front mounting u have to drill out the thread and use a longer bolt and nut. didnt have to modd anything else,,,,,,,,,2" body lift for £5!!!!! sorry cant get any pics on here the laptop playing up, lol. (try soon)

From what I gather its pretty straight forward. Ash Awbery (PICTURES) did his in a similar way but I understand he bought some of the bolts etc. from Bits4Vits to avoid running out of thread and other similar problems.
