awesome, I've often thought if i end up getting rid of my current lux i'll go back to the previous gen lux and have a go with an ifs iliminator kit. Will be watching closely

[3dhilux]

the chop begins tonight .i wouldn't do a ifs eliminator kit the car ends up way to high my mate car is 8in higher then mine (same model) and i have 33's with 40mm lift and he has the 4in kit and 35's.

I agree totally mate....Im cursing in a way that I sold my old 03 hilux....would have been SAS'd by now on 35's....

I agree with 3dlux.....get the parts you need seperately from Bud Customs....front spring hangar and shock towers, high steer kit....then fit a set of IFS Hilux rear leaves under the front , that will give you 2" lift and move you front axle bout 1.5" forward.....then get a 2" lift spring pack for the rear.

trim the guards and you should have a low riding hilux on 35's.....

Good to see the obligatory empty cans. Keep the pics coming

[KTM525EXC]

awsome

[3dhilux]

ifs crap gone

positioning the front hanger


sitting back on the wheels

shackle angle its sitting a little bit back not a bad thing losing a bit of hight

also got the shook hoops in

[Hilux Max]

can you please explain the rear shackle mount?

it looks like the bolt just goes through the chassis rails...i would have thought you'd have to weld a proper mount to the undrside of chassis rail.

shackle angle is good IMO, means more droop!

i so should have kept my 03 hilux.......might just have to leaf sas this one

[3dhilux]

its a crush tube welled in it's just like the rear of the 6th gen. it was only tacked in for the photo

[3dhilux]

sas is done only took a weekend just needs some 37's and level up the rear end
12in bilstiens

high steer setup

flex shot there's 2in more down travel in the shock

[Marshwa]

holy sh!T mate, thats awesome. Looks tops. was it just you and your brother working on it?

If it not to rude may i ask how much it set him back overall for the kit and diff, are the shocks included in the kit? And is your brother going to get it engineered?

[3dhilux]

there was few people working on it. i think the kits about 2g that includes spring high steer diff rebuild kit rotors shocks wheel spacers. then he bought a housing without a centre for $100 then he found a high pinon centre with 4.8's and air locker for $1500 i think. all thats needed is a new front shaft i think they go for $700 but where going to build a pto tube shaft. i not sure what he's doing for engineering

[Marshwa]

thats awesome, pretty amazing when you consider that a good standard lift is around 3-4 grand. bet you guys are stoked.

[3dhilux]

thanks we all ready new the out come this is the 2nd sas we have done. i cant wait till i do mine but im going coil setup

[Hilux Max]

good stuff.......well done.....wish my front end had that much travel

[KTM525EXC]

wish my front end had that much travel

brilliant work there,

[scottsr20]

Wow talk about six degrees of separation ! I gave an auto to your brother to take down to Sydney (from Brissie ) to my brother Shane - you know , the major pisshead with the 79 front axled lux (I did that ! ) , twin transfer cases and never drives . Must be about time I came down south and get some shit done on that thing so he can drive it when he gets back!
