1995 XE Black 180000 plus miles Love it!!

Hey, looks like a nice truck mate...
Give it a 2 inch lift and you'll find it's much more capable, and it won't cost you a fortune to do that.

Go out and make it work for it's keep

my uncle bought a 1995 brand new and it has never broken down since. only major work done was a bit of body work after a roll on its side.

great looking truck you got there

welcome.

I here you, I was looking at the 3" SL I'm not a huge fan of body lifts. But Just need to save a little bit of money, Looks like there around 615 to 950 ish witch really is not to bad.

The path in front is one of my good friends 1994 210000 plus miles and it runs better than mine




new tires

I agree about body lifts, not a big fan of them myself.. the body wasn't really made to be raised, raising the suspension does enough to change your centre of gravity as it is.. but if it's a 2 or 3 inch lift it is enough to be useful, but not too much.

Be careful with a 3 inch lift (or anything higher) as it might cause the drive shafts to be on too much of an angle and cause the uni-joints to chew out.. where as a 2 inch lift won't cause any problems at all..

Now that I've got my 2 inch lift I 'might' consider a 1 inch body lift just to get a bit more, but it seems far too complicated as you've pretty much got to adjust soooooo much stuff it's not funny, so probably not important enough to bother with, I reckon that when I get my shockies replaced and perhaps some detachable swaybars it'll do everything I want... besides, with the LSD rear diff and locked in 4WD it's pretty much unstoppable, so the 2 inch lift just makes it easier!

Your truck looks quite nice...
