Homemade Body Lift

[sharp21]

So im out at work for the next 5 weeks & have access to a full machine shop, so Id like to put together a 1" lift for the Rover & have a few questions:
1. How big should the holes in the spacers be?
2. What size bolts to use?
3. Will 1" cause any problems with rad, shifters, etc?
Ive got a 3" RTE that im gonna install first, with extended brakelines so that shouldnt be a problem...
Ill do the body mount bushings at the same time.
What other parts would I need?

Longer steering shaft for one.... IIRC.

Hmm how much of an extension would be needed?
I know with the rte 2" kit it is only 5/16ths.
Isnt there 1/8" of play?

Not sure how much play is in there, but I don't think there is much if any...
