Lifted Springs in 85' Hilux

Post by cutzook »

Just put 2" lifted EFS springs in a dual cab lux for a mate. Now the rod that goes from the steering box to the "J" arm on the hub has a big angle on it and interferes with the U bolts that hold the diff in.

And now that it is doing that it wont steer to the left at all. Just wondering what others have done to eliminate this problem, anu help will be appreciated.


Cheers Joel
