I'm taking a mini scamp (poor mans moke) on the mongol rally this summer and need to raise the ride height as much as possible. Does anyone know the best way of significantly raising the ride height?
I've looked into the below options and wondered if anyone had any experience with them.

first i would fit new suspension cones unless you know they have been replaced recently , they sag with age

 

next the washer is the cheap way to raise the car up but only by a set amount

 

if you go the adjustable route you can raise it as much as you want (with in the adjustment )

 

i might be tempted in going for the minispares  hilo's these are the real ones the rest are copies , the other advantage of these is they are the only hilo  homologated for rallying so should be strong
