| Post subject: | 2 inch body lift |
i know theres been a few posts about this but was wondering whats involved. From my understanding I: undo body mounts at front, jack up, blocks and bolts do in then do back mounts then do mid mounts. Will i need to lengthen any of the clutch, hand brake and fuel lines. Also will i need to bend the trasfer case gear arms and fuel filler ?????? Im running a 92 vit, coils all round carbie fed. Any help will be greatly appreciated, Cheers

The shifters may need some work. Don't forget to undo the petrol filler hose and you also need to loosen the steering so it will slide a little when you lift it. Just take it really slowly and check constantly as you lift it and don't lift it more than necessary. I've only done an efi auto so I can't answer all your questions. |

I have just finished doing mine. A number of things to watch. . Do you have the internal threaded bolts ? as all of the mounts are studs except for the front. I actually got mine from the uk.. They can be made here though.. Fuel filler didnt need a new rubber, just slipped it a bit both ends.. Depending on your model you may need a steering shaft spacer. My 97 Vit was ok by loosening the clamp at box end and relocating it. My old 89 Vit needed spacers in the flexi bit. Brake lines down under front right side need relocating, I made a bracket up. Left hand brake line needed a new hole drilled in gaurd. Wiring in Engine bay needed loosening at clamps. My transfer shifter was ok, it just needed the rubber surround cutting a bit from underneath. The main shifter needed a spacer, I chopped mine off and added 30mm using a sleeve. Fixed it in place with a roll pin on the bottom and some weld for the top. This kept it quite strong. I did the 89 Vit with a piece added rather than a sleeve and it didnt feel as strong. (flexed) Speedo cable needed relocating with some cable ties. Thats about it I think.. Wasnt too hard.. I did the left side first, then the right.. |
