Just mocking up my front end, and the tie rod has about 2 inches of up travel before it hits on the frame when there is 5 plus inches between the diff and the bump stop. Need a flat steering arm?
What experiences have people had fitting high steer? i want as much up travel as I can, Considering going back to the stock arms?

Is it Sprung over?
The Snake racing kit is designed for a hilux not a spring under landcruiser.

Well they sold it to me for the intended vehicle "yeh it will fit" good job I have a hilux project after I finish this one.....
The front end is coil, trying to keep the drag/tie rod as flat as possible.
Thanks for the reply ruff

Bj who has the flat ones,
Will be running about 3" but want full suspension travel, If i used these arm i would have only about 2" of compression...
Otherwise the stock ones are looking good
