    Just got word last night that my Upper Arms and extended ball joints are on their way too :headbang:

    Im planning on using ball joint equipped Camburg UCA's and I'll be trying something different with them by fitting extended ball joint to them to get the most out of these shafts.

    Heres a pic of the extended ball joints Ill be fitting -

    [​IMG]

    And the Camburg UCA's -
    [​IMG]

    Im hoping both these together will get me the most out of the front IFS...trying to be different and explore what the front IFS of thesecan achieve.

    Once the above is done a set of custom built coil-overs will be slotted in that we are currently developing to suit and it should be one of the best "Non extra track widened, long travel IFS" suspension's around.

    I assume that these will be cheaper than RCV's. Contact wyatt to express your interest.

    11" of down travel by itself or did you mean 11" of travel overall - both up and down?

    pretty sure standard Taco setup get you 8" of travel with factory coil overs....as a reference.

    That is one hella truck. I think the 2012 Tacoma or 3rd gen Tacoma should look like the Hilux.

    It's so cool reading about/seeing all these new products. I have never heard of extended ball joints. What a genius idea. Also, that diff drop is neato and looks much more effective than what we have.

    I'm surprised you still have your front sway bar. :drevil:

    Is a possibility that that sac kit could be used on the Tacoma's over here?

    Legaly, we need to leave it on....thou when I upgrade my suspension again Ill see how it handles before I decide whether to keep it on or not.

    Will the kit fir the Tacomas.....not sure mate,......are the front end portions of the chassis the same? I think they would be...thou the hilux is fully boxed all the way through and the tacoma aren't, but I think theres a good chance it would fit.

    I think the dimensions would be the same to. Your cross member looks the same so I'd imagine they would make it the same size and everything to keep costs low. Regarding the fully boxed vs. c, we'd probably just have to plate ours more.
