Lads with the land cruiser were renowned for nasty bodge jobs on 4x4s , where I worked refused to have any of there vehicles in

The conversation at the scrap yard,
Why are you scrapping your land cruiser
It's got wood worm

Should be a capital offence ruining a 4x4 legend like that. If someone came to me and asked me to put together a lowering kit or something gay like that I dont think I could hold my tongue.

hmm i dunno my mate has 35s and reckons there fine, he got 3" body lift and torsion bars all the way with the balljoint flip, nothing at rear and hes running 50mm wheel spacers also.
but he has cut alot out the arches reckons its ok. that said he told me he smashed the font end on full lock when it went in the air and came down hard ?
i guess the bottom line is whats your idea of fine....occasional scrub here or there or nothing at all...
im in the same boat i have 285/75/16 but might sell and get either 285/75/16 or 33s/ 15s or 35 /15s either way im after steels look way better lol

You've gotta becarful with 35's,L200's don't like em,off road they put a lot of strain on the steering components,especially ya track rod ends.Carry spare ones as they tend to snap under load.

balls to that then is it worth swapping my 265s for 285s or 33s even?

did ya run 35s then @woody13

i saw a couple of lads there a few years back with 35s too and a big body lift a red truck springs to mind

maybe ill have to be content with the 33s then

Unless you can find some heavy duty steering components.If they exist, I would try Australia.

maybe @charger265 knows?

reckon your could fashion something up to use rose links or would they not provide enough movement?

they might its probably extra wear on the other components too pumps aint cheap either

Whatever you decide it will never be as bad as the truck I saw that had been lifted on wood blocks and threaded bar for new body bolts

There was a bloke in our club that was running 35's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hT-_Moom4_4
The problem he faced was a lot of cutting and there was no options for obtaining stronger frond end components
So it was just 2" body and 2" sus...
Any more lift on the sus would break CV's
Any more on the body lift and your pushing the limits of breaking the cab off the chassi...

A few places sell 3 and 4 inch lift kits seen plenty of trucks running them with no problems but I hear you about the cab being ripped off the mounting points

Seen a couple with 35s too and they look tight, I have cut all I can without going into the foot wells
