Can you do your own Spring over/Bodylift?

[Monty]

Springing over the rear of the car isnt that hard as u are simply unboliting your u bolts grinding off the perks and rewelding on the other side of the diff housing and just rotating the housing up to adjust the angle of the pinion angle.

The hard part of a spring over is in the front when u start messing around with the steering as wheel as the need to cut the front housing to adjust the pinion angle.

Actually seeing a lot of 2wd utes now doing spring overs on their rear as to why im really not sure

i would have to say no but will hopefully be able to say yes in the future as i am learning more and more everyday in terms of mods for my rig

Bodylifts i can do in 2 hours.

Screwy you must be a charger or have use of a fully quipped mechanics garage cause i`m only a home hack & the quickest i`ve ever done an entire bodylift using only car jacks & basic tools is 8 hours non stop (Not including lifting of bullbars & adjusting gear levers).

So far i`ve done a Diahatsu F20, two Zooks & an 85 4-Runner (the F20 was the first ever done & the easiest).

I have a half equipped garage (ex mechanic who likes buying tools) and the most it's taken me is a couple of hours including drilling holes in alloy blocks and all that.

O fourse, I've never done a bodylift over 2" which would makea big difference in time taken.

Plus it's pretty hard to convert to SPOA when you are IFS....

well i vote yes as ive done 4 bodylifts so far, and i completed the 4th one about an hour ago (was a hilux and we did 2 inch body 2 inch motor lift)

helped my bro put cruiser axles under his jeep. and im gonna spoa 60 series axles under my 45.

i think anyone could do either of those mods. if they think it out and take their time. no point rushing because youll end up with slop.
