4 banger pics

Thanks man that helps alot. Part of the fun of the 4cyl to me is making alot of this stuff work like the issue I had with skids

 

That's loaded too

 

how much lift in the front though?

 

R34 gtr and an 80 series rhd diesel cruiser

 

I don't know I forget what it was stock.. I only have 1cm of preload on the co's lol and my 35s don't rub anymore like they used to at full lock

 

Ya you shouldn't of had an issue cause they're the same truck underneath

 

sounds like trouble at least the gtr does my trouble is in the garage and hasn't hardly been tuched in 2 years

 

Weekend gt car I'm over going super fast I just wanna be comfortable and rip some twisties

 

I had to cut the oil drain hole in the rt place and I had to cut the mid and stretch it 2"

 

That being said my truck isn't actually for sale I've worked too hard... plus my old lady would be pissed if I started another build

 

Mine is a blown 68 camaro and I try to just put around in it but it's hard to behave

 

That's super weird cause there's literally 0 difference between mine and the ones bolted on my buddies 4.0 we bought them in the same group buy... but different manufacturers do different thing s

 

I don't think anybody took you serious about selling at least I didn't

 

The only thing I could figure is because they are fabbed off a v6 manual and I have an auto idk really but I adapted and made them work

 

Maybe the auto could be longer

 

kinda what I'm thinking. It's like what I was saying about the suspension I don't care what model truck you have trd or, trd sport, sr5, or base when you remove the stock suspension they should all be the same

 

I have a crappy pic of my truck beside a stock 3rd. I have close to 3" in front and 2" blocks in back, but leafs are shot and the sell don't help, and I am on 30,5" tall tires. Did your looks like this beside the 3rd gen?

I may be wrong but I think hub to fender mesurements give the suspension lift without take the tires in consideration. With those numbers it could be easier to figure out if the truck was really lower than others or if it was a visual effect? When you bought it it was on 245's tires? Or smaller?

 

Yes that's a good comparison in your pic. Truck was bone stock on 245's when I bought it. I'll get measurements here in a little while. I had had a 3" spacer in the front. I removed it and installed 5100's initially set at 0 with Eibach 112620 coils and it lowered the front by 1.5" = 1.5" of lift. I then removed them and moved the clip to the .85 setting and te front was at .5" lower than it had been with the 3" spacer. Since then I have added and aluminum plate bumper, Allpro steel sliders, and SOS steel skids. I can't believe this caused much drop with the 620# coils especially since the bumper is aluminum and it's that hung weight in the front that would make a difference. I'm not complaining about the truck as it works great this is just more of a curiosity thing for me. I could put 3/8 spacers on the front to raise it but don't really like the idea with the struts already set at .85. These were used struts and coils I installed but in great shape.. Like I said I'm just sitting here bored and this is basically entertaining to me the truck works great. Now look at your pic and see how even your truck is with the stock 3rd gen yours is perhaps a little taller even. Now consider mine has 255/80/17 tires so should be even a little taller but it's not. This is fun

 

Ok I took measurements which was a little tricky with 1 hand. I got 22.5 in the front and 23.5- 23.75 in the rear it was a little harder to hold it good there.

 

Comparing my measurements to yours they're almost the same. so either this is all just in my head (probably) or we're in the same boat. Tyetti's front measurement was 2" more but I'm sure he's running something completely different. It still seema short to me and the guys upp here who have the same size tires may have more lift on the fronts idk. One guy has Ome with i think 886 coils and the other has Icon which he may have cranked up
