Umm, I'll try & get of my proverbial & take some recent photo's of the ute... Haven't taken any since before it was mod plated.
Here's the last one I have... Ride height is basically the same.

Open in new window


Have approx 45mm clearance between the tyre OD & the guard lip... Running 14's with 185 x 55's.

Took approx 3 & 3/4 coils off the Gemini springs.
Final gemini spring length was 250mm.

There was a bit of issue with the droop as the spring length was shorter than the shock travel.
It was alright once I got them in as the radius rods & swaybar held the springs in the right place, but I ended up drilling some small holes in the spring perches & the springs themselves & securing with tie-wire to make sure they were located correctly while I was re-assembling.

Lots of stuffing around, but the result has justified the means
