Body lift bolts, hilux.

Post by Gribble »

Who knows for a fact the size and length of bolt needed for 2" body spacers on a lux (91 mod s/c)? Ie. Is it an M12x100mm or whatever. I dont need to know thread sizes or tensile strength. Just the basic dimension of the bolt needed.

body bolts

If you have a standard height cab, ie no body lift, measure the existing bolts and add two inches. Mine are 12mm in dia.
Custom body work by trees and rocks...

Well, at least you have half the answer. And its currently got 3" lift, i want to put it back down to 2" for engineers slip. Just seeing if anyone knows the right measurment. I might just get off my lazy ass and measure one myself, but it is monday and i just cant be farked. :D

Nah dude. The threaded section is only an inch and a bit long, plus the bolts are rusted hardcore, so im getting new ones.
