hilux how high what cost

Post by shavedtoy »

i have lifted my hilux now a couple of inches and am about to lift it some more, my question is how high can you go before you need to change the steering link arm to a dropped arm and the diff locater arm to adjustable, also where is the cheapest place to get them, thanks for any input.

Anything over 2" you will need the adjustable arms.

If you get a spring that has alot a droop in it you may need x-over as well, or you risk snapping off the j-arm on top of your steering knuckle.
