coil spacers on a 80 series?

Post by jason80series »

hey everyone, ive got a 1990 80 series landcruiser and ive got a 2 inch lift suposably but i was just checking out some 30mm coil spacers to throw under it for a little bit more clearance and me being an apprentice without the expensive cost haha.. was just wondering would it the 30mm coil spacers effect the caster to much that it wouldnt be safe to drive or ware unis super fast or anything? any info would be good, thanks :)

I have an HZJ80 with 1" lifted Heavy Duty springs, and 30mm coil spacers (with swaybars). It drives just as good as it did the day it rolled off the production line, 20 years ago.
