Where ever you get your kit from, make sure they use zink plated H/T bolts as I have pulled out plenty of rusted out black H/T bolts on older lifts.
NOW ABLE TOO SAY WHAT I WANT WITHOUT FEAR OF LOOSING SALES.

Cheezy, do you know anywhere I can get a good kit from?

If not, can you give me more detailed specs and maps.

We sell the kits here with the bolts, we make our own kits, we don't buy them in.

We use polyetherline blocks with black H/T bolts, have used the same material for the last 4 years never had any problems.

I have to agrea with Cheezy. Do not use Black H/T bolts. I used these with Poly blocks on my Hilux and when i rolled it and then had to remove the cab i had to cut some of the bolts off because they were rusted in big time. These had only been fitted for around 1.5 years.

You may also want to think about reinforcing the floor where the bolts go through, in our LWB we pulled the back 2 bolts through the floor and the ones under the drivers and pasengers feet were begining to suffer from the same problem.
This problem may have been caused by us driving like complete and utter lunaticks most of the time, so if you are a half sensible driver you may not have this problem.

There was a point where we were traveling down a steep hill and we could feel the back bouncing off the mounts, felt like the body was gona come off the chassi.

For the back we cut holes into the floor big enough to fit some plate and the mig to weld them.
