surf body lift..

g'day out there.
jz whacked a set of cepek mud country's under my surf.
LT305/70R16 they are.
took them of my hilux ute(pick up) on wich I spent considerable money on suspension lift to accommodate them.
the surf already is lifted tho not the body.
I'll need to go 2inches higher on the body and am askin about the change in the height of centre of gravity.
clearly there will be some change... tho is the change going to be significant?
I should mention, the rims are offset and increase my standard wheelbase width by 2inches each side.
thanks.

I had a 2 inch body lift on mine and not noticeable issues. Just incase some dont know what the Surf is, it is a 4Runner in different parts of the world. You lucky enough to have the diesel?

If you still have the sway bars on it, you probably wont notice much of a difference.

I have a 3in BL with 33X12.5s on mine and I can still take backroads at freeway speeds with no fear of rolling! Body lifts affect your COG the least out of all lifts, mine drives like its stock. You probably won't even really notice it.
