quick advice regarding suspensions. i was at the mccallum park perth 4x4 show last weekend and am currently CONFUSED :oops: to what suspension lift kit to get :

old man emus or monster ride recons?


i basically want a basic upgrade to my sr5 dual cab, with

BFGOODRICH LT265/70 tyres with the OEM 17" rims from toyota
Arb bullbar
Arb bash plates
Braided brake lines
Slotted front discs
extended diff and transfer case breathers
raised suspension without needing to drop diffs etc


95% of the time its going to be driven on the road but would like it to be off road ready (mostly boggy beach and semi rough camping) when i come home from work (R+R).

please advice as im waiting for a quote from arb welshpool.

cheers
tolga 8-)


P.S. would also like to move the inter-cooler from the top and relocate it to the front of the radiator for better air circulation to avoid engine heat transferred into the inter-cooler.

hey mate,
it depends how much you want to spend, but I have heard a lot off hilux owners having ome suspension and changing it out to another brand, if you have the coin go for the DMS suspension from monsterrides you will not regret it or even Ultimate suspension is great as well I have there leaves in the rear.
as for the intercooler if your not going to get more power out of the engine I would leave it as it is mate, im changing it as because I've fitted a bigger turbo and will be trying to get more power out of her.

hope that helps
if your keen on the DMS suspension give Matty or Max ( hilux Max)
