Thats because your springs don't move :P
Good way of reducing body roll i suppose (and spine service-life)

Mine runs fine on the 1.5" springs. Just needs more flex.

Bring on the YJs! Probably with astra shocks up front and keep the L200s on the rear.

I fitted +3" hoses just to give me some to play with as i wasn't sure how much lift i needed.

If your already running off set wheels a couple of inchs lift wont make any difference to it rolling over. Even with starand axles and wheels you have to be trying to rolls over an SJ.

I've done a bit of a virtual lift and I'm going to save some money and get myself a new set of tires, my zuk has 26" overall at the moment so I'm thinking of going from 255 60 R15's to 255 70 R15's which make it 29" so that oils lift it about 1 1/2", if I feel like it I might do a 2" suspension lift like Scottie said about..
