Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys i need your help to make a quick decision.
I want to push my axle forward on my LN106 Hilux so that i can run 35 Silverstone XTs. To date i've a 3 inch suspension lift using Ultimate Suspension leaf springs.

I went to 2 workshop in Malaysia, one suggested doing the axle relocation plate like u see on Snake Racing, the other preferred to drill the leaf spring to move it forward as he claims it's safer.

By doing this any idea how will my handling be affected or what will happen to my geometry?

So i need your guys opinion the pro and cons between the two methods.
Thanks for answering my silly question.

What ever you do DO NOT drill your spring pack, it will snap where the original hole was.

I lived and learned.

How far are we talking about? One inch or three

No matter what you'll need to shorten your torque rod and draglink to however far you move it it won't get full lock to lock with your steering

Thanks for your advise. So the max i should move forward is 1inch?

What's a torque rod and drag link?
Is a torque rod the thing that connects to the chassis and diff pumpkin?
So what is a drag link?
pardon my ignorance.

drag link is the rod that goes from the steering box to the left wheel

the torque rod is what you said

Although on a hilux the drag link runs from the steering box to Right Wheel on a right hand Drive car.

we did one last week on 4 runner with 37's on 10" 2.5" backspace rims, re drilled diff housing, moved the diff forward 30mm and altered steering arm and torque rod to suit, took all of 2 hours.

Cutting the fenders took longer.

DONT DRILL THE LEAF PACK!
