Question;
Can I do a suspension lift on my new toyota turbo diesel (IFS)?
If so, how far can I safely go.....What breed should I be looking at :?:

OK my first comment is "YOU SUCK"

Now before i get hammered for picking on a NEWBIE have a look where he lives!

MMMMmm about a 30 minute drive to LCMP!!!!!!!!!!! (Bastard :bad-words: ) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Sorry i just think your pretty lucky thats all!
:D

Anyway back on the subject!

There are a few kits available but are quite expensive!

Most of the Kits usually offer lifts in 2 inch progressions 2", 4", 6".

You will find that it a lot of people will suggest a solid axle swap, but since its a NEW rig that is not a very viable option!

If you just want to lift it slightly to increase your ground clearnce then don't get to carried away with the height, i would only go 2 inches other wise it will just get to top heavy!

Also if it brand new i would be very careful of the warrenty! Toyota would do a after market suspensin kit for it but NOT a LIFT KIT!!!!

You can always do a 1 or 2 inch body lift and chuck some bigger tyres under her.
Body lifts are prettty straight foward some people like em, some people dont.
Im of the opinion that if done well and not too high (more than 2 inches is a no no) then they are fine.
