Title: More articulation - hilux
Post by: Ja1983 on February 03, 2006, 18:14:38

dunno why, but mine doesnt seem to think twice about lifting a wheel off the ground. i know the shockers on the front are at full reach in the normal road position, changing them will probly allow a bit more.

but even the fourtrak was capable of touching arch on one side, whilst allowing a small family of colobus monkeys to sit on the opposite wheel whilst wearing large hats...


any more ideas?

You run HD springs don't you which will be very stiff? Softer springs and longer travel shocks should do it.

Carrying some weight or using softer springs would make a world of difference.

Any of the Japanese pick ups really need to carry some weight even as standard to get them twisting.
