looking into a 89 BJ74
It's a 2 door. But what i am asking is can i fit a 2" or 3" OME lift kit with out moding anything at all? like i dont need driveshafts, or anything else? the kit includes all the shocks, leafs, shackles etc etc etc...but will i need to do anything else to fit the lift?
Keep in mind, i still havent sold my rig yet but i am looking at a BJ74 un lifted and would like to lift if i get it. __________________ Belize Off Road Serenity Sands B&B Dakar Rally Buildup underway. 1991 Hilux Surf SSR-G 3.4L V6 Petrol |

Any thing over 2.5-4" the geometry of the steering and driveshafts (driveline will need extra work)ie turning the knuckles and since it is a BJ74 you are looking for it would have a low pinion front differential so at around 6" lift you would need a (double cardan ) joint to aleviate the vibration from the steep angle of the driveshaft .
