	Hi all. I think this might have been covered but try as I might I can't find it. I just wondered what would be involved and how difficult it would be to achieve an 'off road' look on a standard panel van, or car for that matter, not quite as extreme as this but you get the idea. www.google.co.uk/search?q=raising+suspension+your+car&hl=en&client=safari&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=nzRTUYTDDaK30QWswYDICg&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1024&bih=672#biv=i\|0%3Bd\|z0X3Vlnsr37PgM%3A On some vans with already high suspension could you get away with just off road tyres?? Sorry I'm being a bit vague but any help gratefully received!

	Thanks for your input gents, and thanks for the lik help! Is there an easy way to get protos up here or do I have to put them in photobucket? And smurf what do you have? I love that Subaru brat btw, I think it might be beyond me though!
