Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey guys,
i have a 96 coily sierra with 40mm suspension lift, and ive noticed alot of guys have a 2" body lift,
was just curious where i could get one of these from as im after larger tires, something like 31x10 on 15x8??? so i need more lift to fit them.

and im curious what people tend to do with transfer cases on coilys with large tires, ive read that they get a 1.3l leafys case and then put the reduction gears in?

any info would be great thanks

Body lifts are the same as all other Sierras. Ebay or suzistore.com.au or someone on here sells them.

I have a feeling that when you place a leaf spring transfer in you may need to look at a different length drive shaft but someone will confirm that i hope.

Sj80 sierras are what id call a soft roader compared to Sj70s id stick with 29 inch tyres and forget the body lift and gears as they are no where as good as a leaf spring sj

thanks scooby

just found that stuff on suzitore, new to the sierra scene only got it 3 months back.

and ive been told by a few people to sell it and get an Sj70 due to the fact there are alot of "kits" for easy modding,

however i dont mind getting in there and making stuff fit myself as im a pretty gun welder



but are there any actual reasons why Sj80s are considered softer?


in the end im after a good project to fill up my free time and a potent offroad weapon

For body lifts just_cruizin sells them, a very good kit from all reports.

As for the transfer cases, the difference between coilies and leafy's is that coilies are chain drive and leafy's are gear driven cases. The reduction gears are made for the leafy cases. From what i remember its not a huge job to change them out (i've only read about this never done it first hand)

As far as modifications go, it is easier to start with a leafy, only because you can duck down to any store and buy most kits for them. If your a gun welder, strengthen up those radius arms get a locker and go hard!

Indeed, not hard at all.

The most important parts you need is the mounting brackets from a leafy transfer case and the 1.3L leafy jack shaft (the shaft between gearbox and transfer case).

What weaves said, don't listen to the haters. Everyone loves telling me how weak coilys are underneath, yet i manage to run around on 32" TSL's and don't have any major or consistant breakage issues. Things do break now and then, but considering it's basically used for nothing but offroad, you get that now and then.

$365 from suzistore

and just to clear up any confusion monkey, i need:

-1.3l leafy transfercase

-1.3l transfercase mounts

-1.3l leafy jack shaft

and then the reduction gears?



on a seperate note anybody know a retailer in australia that sells bushwacker flares?

ive only found retailers in america
