Great looking truck!

Couple of questions as I am shopping for my first G, specifically looking at the 2005 G55s.

I have built three Land Rovers,( 2003 D2, 2004 D2 and 1995 Range Rover Classic).

Are there lifted springs that I can use with these trucks? In the Land Rover world I always used Terra Firma 2"-4" springs with new shocks. I read a lot on here that people are using body spacers Etc.

Would rather go the route of a full lift kit with the springs and shocks, but haven't found any definite info on my searching.

I also love the Grabber AT2s I've had on my LRs, and being that the 2005 G55 has 18" rims, which I love, I am looking at sourcing Grabbers that fit, but looking at your truck I am thinking BFGs, but have never driven with them.

Outside of this I will be doing a BAJA flat roofrack and accessories for overlanding and camping.

Looking forward to finding the right truck and giving my E63 a big brother lol.
