Matwelli.
I understand where you are coming from but keep in mind that your truck (unless modified by the use of manual front hubs.) spins the front diff constantly even if 4wd has not been selected.
however the older 80's models didnt have this problem as no center diff was installed.
I am sure ...

Fist off, I applaude anyone trying to get more lift out of their IFS suspension.

On my own rig, I have done the most to maximise the flex from the front end , and left the ride height standard (the 33's help in the height dept)

The tai kit gets the extra lift by basically moving the whole lot ...

lets see them on the car..

And so you shall.
I have completed my soa and ifs mods and it has all gone to plan.
the old pajero has never looked better and I had minimal complications.
The new lift has allowed me to fit 33" muddys with plenty of room to spare. (I fitted my brothers 35" wranglers ...

Hi guys.
What are the disadvantages of soa ?.
Likewize What are the disadvantages of shackle lift and longer springs to meet the same height as a soa.?

Hey myshout, i know what you mean about the mods to your front, my mate did similar to his ( the paj from tuff truck ) before going a SAS, but he didn't go spring over in rear just longer shackles and raised leaves till he went 1/4 elliptic, but it was about the hight your thinking of and it was ...

currently dont have the money for higher leaf springs and I tried the extended shackle thing and bent the rear of the leafs when the shackles inverted.

WHY? :?
whats the point if the front is still IFS? i lifted the rear in mine and drove around for a few hours before lifting the front and it felt horrible :x
how much lift would you gain from a springover in the rear? 4-5 inches?
and then you could get 3 in the front at best? it still fould feel ...

fogive me but im not tipped up with all the abbreviation's.
Sas??????

Solid Axle Swap - pull out all the IFS stuff, and bolt in a solid axle. Difficult to find a suitable axle in Aus, most build a custom converted Toyota axle. I'm sure we'll soon know if I'm wrong. :D

In the FAQ, at the bottom ...

No. My question is has any one ever done a rear end spring over.(rear diff)

should have pics by the weekend.

I only made them up on the weekend.
They are currently at the engineers being mig welded up.
when i get them back i would be happy to take some pics to show you.
In the meen time i can tell you that to make them required a spare standard set of upper wish bones which were basically cut in half and ...

i have made new upper wish bones for the front end which will give me a extra 70mm on top of the 50mm buy winding up the torsion bars alone.
Reindexing the torsion bars by 3 splines will be necasary.
My main reson for asking the question is to get some feed back on the body roll i can expect.
i have ...

HI guys. has any one done a spring over to the rear of a 85 pajero?
