im getting a 34inch one off ebay in white for the fester. Mounting it to the roof bars
Any idea on lifting a sprung car without changing the springs?
I raised my fester by putting 15in wheels on but it didnt lift it enough.

Cut the shock turret tops with a large angle grinder, remove a couple of inches of said turrets and reweld the tops back on.
PS I accept no responsability for rendering you car worthless or non MOTable
