This is my latest to arrive lifted with Jaos kit , adjustable shocks 31" tires and needing a damn good clean !!! I parked it next to a regular Delica so the lift can be seen .

Glen,

Grading

I have explained the poor grading system to plenty of peolple many times here is a perfect example . I just recieved two vans , this one was a 3.5 D and the other a 3.5 B . This white van is by far the best van with really nice interior and exterior . The reason given on the auction sheet for the low interior grading was pet hair ?? Its really clean compared to the B grade van that came with it . Should buyers always rely on auction gradings ?? I think not !!!!

The front step bars are missing which makes it look higher . My kids love it , my wife just complains about it but i personally like my treehouse !! I`m gonna try some 33`s on it just to see what it looks like , add some Jaos mudflaps and get the stereo working . Maybe I will get to keep this one .

there are a couple things that really emphasize the height there, the first one being the missing side steps (probably essential with the larger tires) the second is that it's a high roof, and the delica it's beside for comparison is a low roof, just emphasizes the height even more...

looks good, but you may need to carry a step ladder for the women-folk... (I know my gf and my roomate both already complain about how high up my Delica is, and it's fully stock, and probably even sagging a bit in the front...)

left foot on the inside of the rim, right foot on the step, swing in. It's not that hard.

or stilts? pogo stick.... or for the true old school - maybe a pogo ball? Of course I would go for the go-go-gadget legs myself.

Sharp looking ride, I must say I am jealous of the lift. What kind of mods had to be done to accommodate it, do you know? Did any lines have to be lengthened? Or any mountings changed? Could I eventually upgrade my shocks/torsion bars and end up a bit higher? I already have shackles.
