That's great news buddy. Have to give the ol girl a good polish!!! I have a question from earlier in the thread. How exactly did you get your struts in without the inner cv popping out? I found that the strut was far too long and it was hitting on the chassis to get the bottom bolt in... I'd share with how I got it in but it was really agricultural and prob a bit embarassing :oops: ....
If it's worth doing... It's worth overdoing..

JD,

you have to disconnect the lower control arm from the hub/lower ball joint and swing it right down to get the bottom bolt in.

once the struts are primed in location the front end will drop to normal levels.

Yea man, ill chuck the sticker on for sure, just got to decide where i want to put it, but i will definately be supporting this awesome foum. At the end of the day, i dont think my hilux would be what it is today without this site!!

Well I ordered a 1 more thing for the hilux before the shoot, Matty is sending me down some rear shocks so i have his full suspension kit, which was the plan anyway. I also ordered 1" lift block so i can level out the lux a little better as at the moment the front is higher than back and looks little silly.....
