shanepike;93702 wroteYes it has to have self leveling to.be an enginnered up this way which I have an avs self leveling setup for it and that doesnt work I also have a dakota digital haha
I've been building a diesel b2200 swap notched 4link front and rear, trick for my girl.
We have narrowed it down.to two elevel systems.
Accu-air elevel
And level ride by tubular suspension systems in Sydney.
Price is very similar. Accuair have a few more fancy tech though level ride reviews better for function and apparently has less issues with uneven surfaces.

UPDATE!

Wagons in the process of getting stripped down ready for sandblaster , I have new motor finished ready to go in I've gone away from the b230FT and built a Lexus quad cam 1UZ-fe with a t04Z turbo haha so should be a decent motor when running in car , straight after sandblast it goes to my shed in sydney to get the bag work sorted and to get painted so hopefully in the next few weeks ill post up some progress photos of where I'm up too.

After sitting for awhile being untouched it's gotten worse for ware but it's at new place in Sydney an have purchased new engine for it I've gone away from the 1uz an jsut want clean cruiser an bought another b230, the original plan for this isn't going to happen anymore I lost interest so new plan is just to get it back to its prime an just drive it an attend some cruises an meets, New setup will still be modified I have new parts for it engine an exterior an will be creating videos along the way of my process of the build

Once I've made some progress with the build I'll have videos on my YouTube channel which I'll send links along the way
