Hooray, Surco safari 50x72, procomp shocks and the fan setup is here! Pics to follow after install. I got 4" over shocks and was thinking of a suspension lift instead of the PE 5" combo set... What do you guys suggest?

You don't need longer shocks for 3"BL and 2" lift. only if you raise suspension
but as for whats better, Suspension is better but more $$$$

Im a "bargain hunter" heh aka... cheap... and I got them for about 25 bucks a shock. Only ones that fit the Expy though. So now looking for what to do next, I just need to get to the tax return before the wife does! ultimate would be to have the PE 3" and the Trailmaster 5"

Has anyone painted their hood for the safari rack mounted lights? I have done this with a few Land Rovers, including my '95 disco. It think it makes a big difference, but I haven't seen many on here with it.
