why do you need 9" of lift to clear 33" tyres. You can do it with 40mm lifted springs, 2" BL and trim the guards and you can fit a 34" .

9" or 10" is a lot of lift on a SWB vehicle, there are driveshaft issues, steering issues etc


Coz this thread is about the bling not the usability!

I would suggest that this would be close to an actual 10" body lift.

Only in the USA

Not my truck, but it seems to handle the rough stuff well. No cut guards, and the height helps out with the rear a-frame flex. The extra weight from the hilux diffs and 33" Simex keep it on the ground well enough. Gotta admit she has a lot of body roll on the road. He's planning on doing short course next year.

10" lift for 33's though? it would even look out of proportion.

Dunno why I'm even botherin' to reply to this bullchit thread.....but here goes.....

If the dude is wantin' a 10" lift for a Mall Cruiser, jus' tell him to go buy some tight shorts, coz he'll get his rrrrrs pumped more readily that way.

WHY the FARK would ya do it for a cruiser?????.....unless you're just wantin' to be a total w@nker!!!!!!!!! Just go kill him NOW!!!

i think that's actually a 1 litre grill on it. it's just that the lights aren't the normal round ones, they are square.
