Outer Limits 4x4 Board

thanks guys

I thought the drag links were the ones that went from wheel to wheel to keep the right alignment ?

by the way this is a solid axle hilux

I am quite familiar with the IFS

I have a hilux LN106 with lots of slop in the steering the slop is coming from the arm thats attatched to the pitman arm and then to the (i presume) J arm

Im asking because im going to the wreckers tomorow and dont want to sound like a newb

so IFS rears upfront (SR5) what about the back?

I would like about 3-4" of lift without going crazy length shackles

yes i know another one and i have done a search and read the bible (hilux that is) I want lift and flex I read a little about mazda leafs

What type of mazda are they talking about ?

Would ifs rears be better

sorry im new to leafs im used to coils and torsion bars

thanks great help
