[big lux]

im biulding my lux up ive gt 2inch extended shackels all round, 2in lift blocks rear, 2in droped frnt cross member, shock hoops frnt nd inverted rear, jus looking for ideas on wot springs to use???

and ifs rear leafs in rear and use the 1in diff relo plate to move it bak abit?
wot will this lift do to my steering?

any help wuld be great thanx

Rears up front will move diff foward 50mm so draglink and torque rod will need to be shorter that ammount and from what i know about ifs rears just put them in and need a Looong shackle Not just superior or snake extendeds.
Probaly search toyota section and if you still have any Q's post up there about it

youll need crossover for the extra flex it creates. it will also move the diff 3 inches forward.

ifs rears will shift the rear diff back a bit too. dunno how far, not much.

IFS in the rear will move the diff back about 45mm. What i did with mine was get 2 new hangers and moved em forward on the chassis 45mm so then i didnt have to worry about the driveshaft.
Rears in the front is about 65mm forward but i would put in more effort and go cross over or histeer the flex you will get from it is worth it.

My lux flexes well in the front with 3" efs springs in the front from superior engineering, but as a result causes the drivers side shock to pivot in and smash the j-arm.

This is the need for cross over or high steer.

My question is how does cross over move the diff forward by 3" ?

i beleive hes was talking about wot moving the rear springs to the front will do to the position of the font diff bud.

[chunderlicious]

what he said. if you dont go crossover it limits travel and you need a longer draglink thingy as the diff is forward

[jonamaphone1]

longer draglink thingy

shorter?

Cross over doesn't move the diff forward. it eliminates the shock hitting the j arm on big flex. I am in the process of putting cross over steering in mine to make sure i neverbust shock. (also wanted power steer too. 86 lux). Moving the diff forward will also help to rin bugger tyres as well. I have 33's on mine, nobody lift until next week, but when i staret travelling, tyres scrub on guards. if diff was forward a little it wouldn't have happened. well not as bad anyway.

Ifs rears are also really good for travel. i needed to run 9 inch shackles in my lux to be able to take full advantage of my flex. had 3 inch space block in rear as well. didn't move any mounts, but did end up getting sinlge piece tailshaft made.
Hope this helps.
