probably..
but why so much? most GQs etc move 12mm to clear 35's...

Be coz I need just enouth room to fit the 33’ and I think 30mm will do it with now mods I hop
So while I do the front hubs I will do the springs at the same time

i too am looking at moving my front diff forward in my GQ the things i can see being affected is your parnhard rod and steering arm the question is how far can the diff be moved forward befor it affects these things

also maybe in your case you will to look at your shocks and springs

well iam thinking if i don't move it mybe some extened shackels

well i have to do anythink to the steering or any other mobs if i move the diff forward 30mm??

If you're talking IFS it wouldn't be worth the hassle.

Upper & lower wishbones, diff mounting, and steering, and suspension would all have to be moved

You will need to shorted the torque rod and steering arm. Other than that everything else should be fine.

Bartso,

The distance was discussed recently in the Nissan Area. 12mm seems to be the general consensus. 15mm causes panhard issues.

Hilux allready has a second hole 35mm rearward on the drivers side (I think) just drill a hole in the other perch the same and move the diff forward No problems with anything except having to shorten the top arm.

can't remember if we lengthened the steering arm as well (I don't think so) I think the box copes with it. Might have to re-align the steering wheel though.

OH and a tailshaft spacer

14.5mm drill
drill perches 33mm rearward
get adjustable torque rod
or use rear springs in front
