Hilux Body Lift

Post by Mrs Ludacris »

Please don't say use the "search" function as I did to no avail.

I'm needing to know what length bolts I need to carry out a 2" Body Lift in a Hilux.

Any insight would be fantastic.

If they are anything like a 4 Runner there will be several lengths of bolt.
So I would remove one of each down one side of the truck then buy 2 of each at 2" longer for the job.

Takes a little while but will get the correct result.

Cheers Struth.

Oh and make sure you buy grade 8 bolts and nyloc nuts to suit, if you put commercial grade bolts in they will break. :roll:

Cheers

for 2" body lift you will need 5" bolts because the hilux bolts are 3" but that is just the cab iam not sure how long for the tub/tray
Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set

Ring Macquarie 4x4, they supplied the bolts with my kit and should be able to tell you straight up. I didn't bother measuring them, I just put them in.

In my LN106 Dual Cab, the cab bolts were 85mm (so 135mmx8 grade 8 bolts with nyloc nuts) and the tub bolts were 45mm (so 95mmx6 grade 8 bolts with nyloc nuts).
