Level-it kit on Vigo

Post by oxydog »

Had the Level-it kit installed on my Vigo and got her back last night. Thoroughly impressed, just looks better that way (at least for me).

How do you find the road holding when Hilux not loaded?? Very interested in doing this same mod.

Thanks.

I drive on Bf's pumped 2.2 bar. Van is used as my daily ride. No problems at all. U have done about 60k kilos with the iron man suspension and Mikem extended shackles. NB .I did not need ti change the leaf blades. But the van does not sag under load. You can corner at 140ks easily..

Can't tell the difference. Will see with time if anything behaves funny.
