lifting with shackles

[Adrock]

mardy did my alignment. it goes straight so i guess he did a good job.

Lifting the front beyond the torsion bars gets pricey fast. lots of parts needed.

New leafs would be a good way to go in the back. I'll look into that too at some point.

Talking about lifting and putting 31". .....does anyone know where to buy those way cool fender flares as seen on some already lifted ones from Japan?

pretty much you answered your own question... Japan. some of the dealers may be willing to bring some in in the back of an upcoming vehicle though

do a search, there was a guy on here from austrailia selling them, but he called them wheel arches or something like that

Here they are, not cheap though:

330.00 AUD = 292.379 CAD = 293.181 USD, can't belive it is cheaper than in the US:-)

Thanks guys! Actually $300 for the flares isn't so bad. The flares for Suzuki Samurai cost more than that. Anyway, I will head out to look at that grey 5-speed. If all goes well, I will buy my Delica next week (Then I will probably have a lot of questions for you guys).

cheers,

Just thinking.....does the sliding side door need modification to clear the fender flares?

[inferno]

mine has flares and the side door *just* brushes by. Like enough to wipe the dust off, without any binding or resistance.

Anyone know of a company making stronger torsion bars? And CV's?

As well what shocks are people running?

Hi, you can get pretty much what ever your budget will allow for CV's
on my van I have Rancho 9000 shocks. I like the 9000's because if I am going to be towing or carying a load, i can stiffen the shocks, or dial them down to be softer up front if I want, they have the 5 way adjustable valve system. pretty cool
