you can take both your front and rear springs out and have them reset at any spring works I believe there is a good one on railway prade in bayswater
that will give you 2"on the rear and 1 on the front I think thats where danno had his done.
ur a bedford owner ....adapt overcome work it out

try tubular suspensions, NSW, spoke to him a while back, said he could help and was pretty interested too...... I never got back to him but do give him a try, as i said if he can set up a kit , or re manufacture wish bones he would sell a shite load.Dano http://www.tubularsuspensionsystems.com/looks like there in Sydney, this could be a winner.
Any one want to donate a front end to these guys????
