Hi!

I'm intending on jacking the body up on my S2 by 2 inches to allow me to paint the out riggers. So far as a check list I have:

1 - Exhaust off
2 - Body bolts off - footwell, seatbelts, transmission tunnel
3 - Disconnect steering column
4 - Disconnect handbrake and gear knob

Is there anything else I need to do to move the body just 2 inches up?

Any advise would be much appreciated

Cheers

Fuel tank filler hose and two bols in the boot floor need removing.
There is one tricky vertical bolt under seat belt reel that is easy to miss.
I got mine about 4 inches high at the front before it jammed and about 6 inches at the back. All the best with the job, hope you find nothing else untoward

Don't forget the boot strut mounting bolt, it will foul the fuel tank lip.
