Raising bar work

Post by Evski »

G’day, I need to do a body lift on my 1995 Hilux and I’m wondering what is involved in raising the bar work on the vehicle? I have an ARB Bull bar with side rails. I cant weld so will need to pay someone to do it, and I am just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for places to go near Sydney, and most importantly how much I will be looking at paying? Cheers.

If you can't do it yourself its probly cheaper to do a spring lift.
Its a wheelbase thing

Not sure if ARB does, but I will check. I already have just installed a new 2" lift and want to clear 33" tyres. I have had a look at cutting the guards, but with the amount of flex in the front a body lift would work better.
