Lift kit - Help me was created by Laminak
Hi everybody 
My jimny have sick shock
an I would like to lift it :whistle: ...
But for the moment, I wish to remain my insa turbo Dakar (205/70/15) and I will like to make a 3 ' lift.
Will that aesthetically do it?
What is necessary that I add with by the hose connections of brakes lengthened?
Do I have to off-set the bar panhard?
ps: excuse me for my bad English :dry:

Well, when I lifted my truck 3", it looked so silly on 205/70 tires that I was ashamed to drive it, and I had to drive it for a few days before I had time to make room for bigger tires! Aesthetically it looked like shit, if you ask me! :laugh:
Here's how it looked like just minutes after I got the lift kit installed. Tires are Insa Special Tracks 205/70/15.
And I fitted a pair of adjustable panhards the same time, and noticed that without them axles were significantly off center, so I would say you have to fit those too. Also longer brake hoses are needed with that much lift.
