Old Man Emu 2" Lift - Opinions Needed!!
Posted: Tue May 04, 2010 9:58 pm
Gday,
I got a quote from ARB today re an Old Man Emu 2 inch lift for my 03 IFS Hilux. Ive decided to stick to 31 inch MTZs and just run a 2 inch suspension lift. Heres the specs of the quote:
2 inch OME lift - equating to approx 35mm on the front and 45mm on the back - they said this is the average that i can expect to get from this OME kit - due in large part to the IFS front end.
New Torsion Bars (not sure i need them as i run a standard alloy bar and no winch).
OME Nitrocharger shocks on all corners.
250 kg rated rear leaf springs (i dont carry heavy loads or tow much) and they said that the heavy duty 400 kg leafs would make the rear stick up too much compared to the front.
Steering stabiliser.
All that for $1965 fitted.
I thought that was a pretty good deal. Might drop the torsions off it yet to make it cheaper and upgrade to the Nitrocharger Sports Shocks.
Im just after some opinions on OME lifts and any advice as to anything else i should be looking at.
PS: I also got a quote for a 2 inch EFS lift and it came in at $2200.
Cheers guys.
