Awesome video! What type of weld did you use for the bullbar mounting?

[@BRATPAC1]

That looks great...hoping you remembered to re-tighten up the steering uni joint?!!

[@RoamLyfe]

Yes I did!! I actually left a rag tied to the steering wheel so that if I did forget and went to jump in the car I’d then see the rag and remember! 😂

[@joelramjass3604]

Hey mate, did you encounter any problems concerning length of electrical harnesses or hose? Also you have to adjusting your focus points on headlights.. 🇹🇹

[@DavidVoxDem]

Did you need to extend any wiring? I want to go for 3 inches but I'm really worried the shop isn't gonna check my harnesses or hoses

Looks BADASS dude! Whats your plan for the sliders? Noticed you didnt put them back on. You gonna have to modify them a bit now that the body sits a bit higher?

[@rileydix]

Did you have to extended the wires and hoses connected to the cab from the chassis? Looks sick by the way

[@RoamLyfe]

Nope! But I’m not a professional and if you’re unsure I’d suggest talking to one! I’m just following some friends that did similar setups!!

[@joshuacooper7860]

Have you had to change the way you mounted the bullbar yet or have you left it how it is with no problems??

[@NikolaosLedZeppelin]

does this lift gives any bad stress tension at wires or hoses, at steering column, engine and diff components and shafts ????

[@RoamLyfe]

There is negatives to it for sure! But I know a lot of people that have been running it issue free for years now!

[@saml5347]

how much did it roughly set you back to get the car engineered with the lift you’ve got now

[@drdeatha51]

I would have taken that winch/bull bar mount off the body and made a plate to bolt to body frame. Then you could move winch mount up and avoid welding and drilling winch mount..

[@TheKevinhenrychua]

Did you have to do a regear since your tires are 35"?

[@markbergman2342]

hope you dont pull (whinch or recovery points) on the bullbar. Now that it's sitting higher it might damage the chassis.

[@RoamLyfe]

Good point! I currently don’t have any recovery points but I do want to get some! They will be chassis ones I assume

Do you guys install hilux 2inch body lift?

Does it handle like crap now? I only had 4" in my cruiser and it was shit on and off road. Yeah it was higher but so much less stable. I dropped back to 2" and kept the 4" shocks still fits 35s and the off road performance and on road stability was an incrediboe change.

[@RoamLyfe]

Hey mate! I havnt noticed any change besides a tad bit more body roll and obviously sitting up higher! Its been great so far!

[@macca89doz]

@@RoamLyfe nice man glad it works for you, i liked the way it looked and all the clearance at 4" but was almost undrivable on road and so tipoy off road. Mine must be the toyota badge, seems to generate alot of problems.

Looks aggressive as anyway, wish my rig could pull it off without all the negatives it seems to generate for me .

[@excessivegarage]

I run a 3 inch lift in my 80, but I also have dropboxes and spaced swaybar mounts. 33s inch tyres too. It drives better then our other 80 with just standard 2inch lift.

[@macca89doz]

@@excessivegarage mine was same mate, cruisers have drop boxes from factory the nissan drop boxes are just cruiser mounting plates, but had all the supporting compontents like panhards, sway bar extensions superior hyperflex arms and castor plates, upper and lower control arms in rear. Still drove like shit. Wandered all over the road over 80km/h real bad understeer cornering under speed. It is still running all the same gear but with a tall 2" coil and its a far more drivable car. Feel much more comfortable tackling tough tracks at pace with out feeling like im gonna end up on my lid and have no issues fitting the 35s just need to be more cautious of departure and approach angles with 2" less clearance. Not to mention less unwanted attention from the law haha

If you remove the nut you welded in place, then weld a steel plate on top of existing bracket and weld nut to the back of it. Make sure you also extend the gusset up as well that way you increase the sideways strength of it. Last thing you want to do is hit something on an angle and it bend the current mounts.

[@willmarks4541]

Pros: - makes it look taller if your into that - may slightly raise the body to improve cab clearance when offroad Negatives: - illegal in all Australian States - Worsen on road performance and handling - stress on particular chassis to cab components (medium modifications to ramify) - will worsen offroad performance when on cambered tracks (more likely to roll over) - Can be denied insurance claim and or sued - Attract police - if installed incorrectly, will have possible major chassis to cab damage. all up to the individual, but to me not worth it. If you wanted a big rig, dont buy a np300. buy a patrol or a Ram. at least on those or a twin live axle vehicle you can safely and legally (with engineering) raise the vehicles height up to 6 inches (depending on state to state) while also benefitting from flex. if it floats your boat, go for it i guess. but expect it to drive like one too :)
