Lux diffs - Steering binding.. Its Spring Over Axle isn't it?????

Eventually you'll twist and bend the stock transfer cradle so it would be a lot easier to replace it now before other parts are damaged.
Mighty Kong cradle is a good bit of gear.

Is your steering set up correctly? ebst thing I can suggest is flex it up, get it to bind and get out to see what is rubbing...

Check out low range offroad as well for a sierra to hilux steering kit...

Thats normal. You have to host the pic externally and link it. Use photobucket or simillar hosting site. There are a million threads on how to post pics.

I may be able to help you out with a bracket (Roctoy Ring) to beef up your transfer case mounting system.

Have a look below or in the suzuki section for more threads on the Roctoy Rings. If you shoot me an email i can send you more pictures.
