How can I add height 2 Hilux

Post by Rooikappie »

Het iemand ondervinding van Hilux 2002, 4x4 D/C "lift kit" of ander maniere om my 4x4 hoër te maak.
Ek het probeer by verskeie "Fitment centre" om te hoor dat dit nie maklik is met hierdie voertuig nie.Die maksimum verhoging , is ook net 25mm vir net meer as R10k.
Het iemand ondervinding hiervan of raad waar ek kan gaan vra.
Kaapstad omgewing.
Dankie

Im sure you can lift more than that with a OME kit.

A full Old Man Emu kit will add 40-50mm lift to your 'Lux.

Less pricey would be the Mikem suspension, of which much has recently been mentioned and it appears to be of a very
high quality.

Lourens gaan praat met Johan Tyre van First Alignment center in Stikland 021-9495041 .Hy het my Hilux gedoen deur hom voor op te stel en agter langer shakels het polyurathane bushes.Ek het ook die agterste vere laat oor doen en dit het my ongeveer R2000.00 gekos.Dit was 2 jaar terug.
Hy sal jou veskeie opsies kan gee.

THX for the info so far..
Where do I go for these in Cape Town?

Been to some of these and they did not tell me bout these options. Do I go to 4x4 firment centres or Suspension experts? OR Shocks and tyre firment centre.Who can I trust with this modification to get the best price and right result?/
Many question , but I think this is the best forum to get the right answers.
Many thx to all who reply.
