I have a 1989 Range Rover with the old man emu heavy duty springs, bilstein shocks, and rovertym body lift. What does everyone think about Safari Gards Stage III i have heard good and bad things about it. I would love to get about 7 inches on my truck with 35 swampers. I plan on doin the whole nine yards when i do it but i am just wondering what lift everyone truly recommends. I hear Rovertym has some 5 inch springs. Are those, fox shocks, and body lift, the way to go. I just love the fox shocks, but i havent heard anyone talk about them in particular. Just let me know what everyone thinks about this idea. And also who makes the best driveshafts. And if i do this kit what driveshaft should i get.

Thanx

if you go with a 5 inch susp lift, you will probably need double double carden shafts. Check out Tom Woods and Six States for these shafts.

RTE does have 5 inch springs, but they are expensive @ $150/spring.

Why go with 7 inches of lift for 35s? you could go with 4ish inches of lift and a lot of cutting and still fit the 35s. Larry Grubbs can probably tell you more about that...

From what I have heard, the Bilstein 7100 is a better shock than the Fox, but i have no personal experience.....
