Trail-Gear Â– IFS Eliminator Kit, 5&#34 Springs 1979-1985 Toyota Pickup W/ 6-Stud Steering Arm Upgrade & 5150 Shock Upgrade

There are lots of choices on the market for solid axle conversion. So what makes our kits stand out? We feature the highest quality parts and the most complete kit at the best price anywhere. Our SAS kits include a front diff armor plate, upper axle gusset wheel bearing and knuckle service kits. Items most others charge extra for. To install your solid axle kit you&#39re going to need a rear matching lift kit, solid front axle from a 79-85 Pickup or 4Runner, and a long spline drive shaft. We offer our kits in three different heights. The hangers and shackles included with each kit add one inch of lift. Thus our 3&#34 spring kit has 4&#34 lift and our 4&#34 kit would be 5&#34 of lift. Note: On V6 installations, we recommend moving the front hanger forward 3/4&#34. This allows the tie rod to clear the stock 4wd oil pan. It also kicks the shackles forward slightly helping the springs to carry the heavier load of the V6 motor.

Trail Gear – Toyota High Steer Crossover Steering Kit, 4 Stud

Crossover Steering is critical for rock crawling. The stock steering just can&#39t keep pace with today&#39s super flexible suspension systems. This results in broken stock steering arms and loss of steering. Our high steer kit features unbeatable quality at a super low price. Kit features super beefy, solid forged steering arms, heavy duty pitman arm, heavy duty .250 wall steering rods, and rod ends. Precision fit for easy assembly. Flat steering arm kit requires custom mounting hardware, not included in kit. *Rod Ends are NOT covered by the No Questions Asked Lifetime Warranty.
