I was looking at this kit as well. I was just wondering have you got to do any other modifcations if you just use the spacers? eg brake hoses, radious arms, etc etc?

Thats the beauty of this kit
You dont need extended brake lines or castor corection bushes / arms

You wont need any special equipment or ring compressors. Lift on the chassis and the axle will drop down, fit the kit and use a trolley jack to bring the springs/shocks back into position, then remove trolley jack and unlift the chassis... wham bam, thankyou m'am :D
