Drop lifts are weak, i wouldn't use them on any truck that get's wheeled even light wheeling.


I wouldn't say that necessarily. The Thailand government/military was willing to use an IFS drop kit to upgrade their mitsu pickup trucks for duty in the jungles which based on camel trophy events look like they can be pretty harsh terrain. Maybe not as harsh as rock crawling but definitely as harsh if not worse than any easy and many moderate trails.

Now that said, I wouldn't say that this guys drop kit is worthwhile to consider especially with the mis-information he was spewing. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />


Those were slightly better but not much, definitely not worth the price or effort. I'm keeping track of the cost involved to do a killer SAS on my Gen 2 we can do a cost comparison vs Dat's Thailand lift. It should be pretty close, the end result is a front suspension you can get parts for easily. PA_JERO and I had a discussion about how if he were to break a knuckle drop spacer on that drop lift he'd be in trouble without a custom fab shop in his pocket. I need to make a new front suspension thread so that this thread can go away.
