Excellent attention to detail and editing is on point!
I would have been good if you video recorder Everything specially the gear lever bit. Out of all videos this one is the best because your explained everything nicely lot of the other videos didn't only 50%. Good job guys 👍👍
Your mate mentioning the boosting brakeline saved me, Checked it after this video and mine was clean off haha great video lads
Took me a week to get a bolt out of my leaf springs😂 tried everything but being right next to the fuel tank I couldn’t use an oxy torch or grinder. in the end we had to slowly cut it with a coping blade
How did you go about the bullbar? Being the fact of lifting the body but wouldn’t the bullbar stay where it is?
Editing is on point👌🏽
Good video helpful info but my goodness that bumper looked heavier then the vehicle itself.
Nice Lux. I like the lights.
Does it actually make a noticeable difference?
Hey mate quick question does the long entry staino fit an old safari snorkel hole?
Top video! Editing is heaps good !! I had a massive issue with the radiator aswell! I’m just curious to know how the bullbar was still able to line up with the headlights at the end ?? Mine has a big space when I was done ?
Moey dntworry In the time that I went home for the night, Ben made brackets for his bullbar so that it was also raised 2 inches. It’s a fairly simple process but if you’re on Instagram, Ben would be happy to talk you through the process! His account is @renboss2000
At what point did you realise lifting the body wont change the fact your tyres scrub control arm? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 simply a new set of rims with a little more negative offset would be the easier option lol
any excuse really to body lift
big car go brr yay
Hi guys, an you post the link to the kit please? I would like to try and order this delivered to Europe… thank you.
Nice mate!
How did you fix your 4wd gears
How will the body lift fix his tire scrubbing on the control arm
I think he wants to put bigger tyres on with an offset to fix this
Exactly my thought too haha
Did u raise your bullbar to suit?
Yes he ended up buying a new bar made for the 2” body lift 👍
Didn't you weld a piece onto original one and make it fit?
Just thought of something, What if you have a front mount intercooler
Well the intercooler would be mounted to the body, and the engine is staying put. So you might get away with it if you have heaps of flex in your hoses, but otherwise you’d need to make a drop down bracket 👍

Update:
Intercooler actually fits alot better with the lift
Nice work. What about the shroud from under the bonnet to the intercooler? Does it still seal?
I think because the body lifts and the engine doesn't, the intercooler no longer seals on the bonnet. In the near future, Ben is going to make his own intercooler lift to suit this change and so it seals once again
I believe vmn make a specific spacer for between intercooler-bonnet. Would love to see more videos with Bens hilux
mymistymountainhop I think he was keen to save a dollar but I’ll absolutely pass that information onto him! Thank you and I will have to let him know you said so, he’ll be stoked 😂😊
mymistymountainhop will and I are planning camping trip in a couple weeks and if you’re lucky you’ll get another video and get to hear my hilux 👌
Awesome. I look forward to it!
I'm doing mine at the moment, can you put the extension shaft below the original one?
Mr Shinybald I can’t see why not. I think the way it separated just kinda lent itself to putting the extension on top, but it should work either way
So my extended shaft is rubbing on the firewall any idea how I can pull it down?
Mr Shinybald did you only slide the extension on like an inch?? The two extension sleeves should be touching like shown in the video. I’m sure you could try manipulating them so everything slides down a bit? Just make sure there’s enough sleeve over spline so it’s going to obviously be sturdy enough to act as a steering column
great video mate. can you fit 33s with a 2” lift on a hilux?
Waik hey mate I don’t own a hilux but I just had a chat to Ben, he reckons if it’s the same model as his and the tyres don’t have an offset, you’ll get away with it. But if you have an offset they might scrub. It does depend on your model and how much the suspension may have sagged though!
Will's Landcruiser Mods thanks heaps mate
Are you able to get in contact with me man? Just having a few problems with my radiator drop and need some advice/ photos
