The best decision for my Hilux.
I started of with the cheap lift option for my Hilux a few years back... putting some more tension on the tortion bar. Really bad decision, take most of you flex away, makes your Hilux jump around like a little rabbit and causes a very hard ride.
Now I have ball joint spacers from Crawler http://www.4crawler.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and loving it.
With all my modification to a standard Hilux suspension my lux is starting to flex nicely for a IFS that is.
My list of mods:
• 33" Hankook Tyres
• 50mm Body Lift
• Removed Load Leafs
• 35mm Ball Joint Spacers

Re: 2002 IFS Ball Joint Lift
Hi Sorry for the Hi-jack. I see you have done the Diff breather mod. What did you use for the connector to the diff ? Did you do the same (Use the same connector) for the front diff ? Do you have pictures of the front ?peetvdw wrote:The best decision for my Hilux.

Re: 2002 IFS Ball Joint Lift
No problem,
I used a small gas pipe connector (I'm sure the front is the same). Can't remember the exact size. The connector is a straight fit which I sealed with thread tape. I sealed the other end of the pipe with a oil sponge filter.
I didn't do the front. It is only required to do the front when you do long distances in 4WD H.
Hope this helps.

Peet ek het die selfde padjie as jy geloop. Eers die t/barr's en toe die ball joint lifts en ja dit het 'n baie groog verskil gebring.
