3" Suspension lift
Hi. Ek bou nou my eerste Hilux 4x4 op. Nog al lekker. Ek soek bietjie hulp. Ek wil hom so 75mm lig. Ek is op soek na n kit en dan wil ek ook net weet wat sal ek alles moet vervang of langer moet maak?

Re: 3" Suspension lift
50mm body with Mikem suspension, with extended shackles you could achieve that.

Dankie. Nou besig met die 50mm body lift. Jy sien n ander kant van jou voertuig as jy hom so strip.

Re: 3" Suspension lift
2" op die body is perfek, moet nie baie op die suspensie lig nie, dit maak hom onstabiel. Sy neus moet ook altyd hoer as sy gat wees.

Re: 3" Suspension lift
Gesien die neus is hoer. Hoe so? Ja, ek het ook gedink 75mm is bietjie baie. Jy gaan te ver val as jy uit klim en jy is nie stabiel nie. Ha Ha. Ek kan nie wag om kla te maak nie.

Re: 3" Suspension lift
Probably because the rear packs are stiffer to handle a load and as such don't flex that well ... most of the flex is in the front, so if it's a little higher it can give that little bit extra flex.Family_Dog wrote:Why is this, Allan?Sy neus moet ook altyd hoer as sy gat wees.

When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: 3" Suspension lift
Lyk bakgat! 
Net om seker te maak jy weet ... daai winch staan verkeerd om. As hy so staan sal jy die kabel aan die boonste kant van die katrol moet voer, wat beteken dat die kabel baie meer leverage op die mountings sal sit. Boute sal miskien kan breek.
