2" Lift & snorkel top, info required.

Hi all,now that i'm getting into starting mod our bog standard frontera,i have a question,will i be needing to change the pucks that lift the bodywork??
i got the shackles from Alex at the GWRA and i forgot if he said i needed them or not..sorry alex :oops:

Also there was at the meeting a burgandy SWB frontera with tyre print design,(i think it's fuddy mucker)i'd like to ask the owner where he got the snorkel top from.i got one from ebay but the top is a little too large we feel.
looking at the snorkel top it would be ideal for the size of tubing that we bought.

Any info on these questions would be great.

Hi Lee,the SWB is the infamous ..................................(drum roll :wink:

Thanks A friend..i've just sent him a PM..i want a snorkel top just like his.

the shackles from Alex are for the suspension lift (if they are the ones I'm thinkking of) the pucks are for a body lift, different animal alltogether

oh ok,duh me!! :oops:

yeah i get i now..shackles suspension...pucks body..i guess i'll go and order a set of pucks to lift the body too,while i'm at it.
cheers all.

got my pucks from xpajun for about £80 i think, not sure about that though, if the missus says i can have it i just go and order it then worry when the cc bill comes in :oh yer:

According to the missus, i can do what i like..she says i normally do any way,i think thats womans code for i give up.lol
so now i've got my own way,i've just gotta decide how high to lift the body,what height is ideal for a bodylift before i have to extend the brake pipes ect??
i'm just waiting for nice weather before i do the 2“ suspension lift.

I've not quite an open cheque book,it's all the overtime i'm doing thats funding the project

i've selected a colour and got the paint for the bits and bobs.
i've chosen blue..i've also added to the list the blue LED dashboard bulbs..with all these projects, i'm calling them my pringle jobs..once you pop, you just can't stop

Thanks ian for lift info..i've just ordered the 2" body lift kit from xpajun @ £60 + p&p =£72 in total.

i can't wait to get started on the frontera now..just a shame i get the projects go ahead at this time of year. :roll:

maybe,just maybe,the missus had this planned all along,i think lori was thinking that if i got the go ahead now..i'd put it off till next spring/summer..WRONG!!!!

I've just got to await a response from fuddy mucker ( muddy where for art thou!!! ) about his snorkel top,and thats it..hopefully it'll be mostly done before christmas:
2" suspension lift,
2" body lift,
snorkel fitting,( and fingers crossed,snorkel top ),
blue led dash conversion,
just leaving a new set of tyres and respray for spring/summer...and anything else that might pop up.

i'll do a before and after piccy for the site,then one for the totally completed frontera prodject,when i've finished.

I'm pretty sure this is the snorkle top Fuddy got

EBAY CLICKY

Hi again ian, the snorkel top that i took piccy of at the GWRA was a round one,i just wish i knew how to add photo's so i could show you.(i think i got it now).
but i think also that he used slimline tubing and the top seems to compliment the tubing.

Thanks fuddy,i bought a discovery/landy snorkel top from ebay,but as i say it is too big for what we want,i will endevour to persue the suzuki snorkel top.
cheers fuddy.

Could you not use some sort of reducer adapter to make it fit. The landy swivel tops are far less restrictive (suction) than the mushroom tops.

Fuddy could do with reducing, why not go the other way and increase the pipe size to fit the snorkle top you'll get more airflow. Just a thought mate. :lol:

Jase, was that ram air one deffinately 63mm isd cos that's exactly what i'm looking for, and its a nice blue colour
