Hilux Wheels

Post by hiluxhardcore »

Hey, got a 94 2.8 Single cab Hilux, and im just wondering if I will need any sort of lift kit put on it if I put 33" tyres on it? If I do, whats the biggest tyre I can get onto it with out a lift?

BTW. Currently its standard with the 16" skinny's

You can clear 33's buy 2 inch body lift and drilling spring perches
and moving your front diff forward. My brother inlaw did this and he runs 34'' jt 2's.

2+2" lift will clear 33x12.5 muds with a teeny bit of scrubing on the front mudflaps.

Just take the flaps off! :lol:

Im trying to work out how to add another inch of lift into my truck to clear 33x10.5's without doing a bodylift- because a 2" bodylift on an ARB winch bar will be a right royal PITFA to do.

Redrill your perches ferrit? do a search but you can go a small amount without getting into trouble with steering components... or yes make room with a big hammer :D

it'll play havoc with lock to lock and the draglink will only go so far before it hits chassis if stops are ground back, Contemplated it before goin Xover

i was thinking along the lines of extended shackles to gain a bit more height and flex.

Or just settle for a 32x10.5 with the extended shackles and double lock it! :cool:

Yeah do that first then if you still want to go further after a while do Xover or hi steer and you can virtualy take diff as far foward as you want to whatever tyre size you want to run
3Rd post down the page is also a good way to clear tyres

2 inch body and a 2 inch lift will clear 33's.
Just remove the mud flaps or they will be removed for you. :lol:
