Hi Richard

Dit is nie nodig om Aluminium te gebruik nie.
By Maizie's Plastic kan jy net Ø65 PEP materiaal koop. Ek het so 3 jaar trug R600 rand betaal vir 1.5m.
Het dit laat draai by 'n engineering shop vir R450.

Al die ander boute, clamps en fittings het my nog so R550 gekos en dit self in gesit.

Hoop die informasie help...

Richard here's a few lessons learnt from my 40mm body lift, the fuel pipe to the tank will also need to be lengthened, the rear spare wheel mechanism that lifts the spare wheel under the bin, that hole will be mis-aligned after the lift :thumbup:

Whatever the size spaces you put in is what size you have to lift the bumpers.
I would recommend making new brackets .
