nope
can you bolt a spacer in somewhere how much extra length do you need, 3" is a pretty big bodylift
Re: Steering shaft mod HELP!!
Na no way i can put a spacer in. Not like a toyota shaft
Its got prado diffs front and rear and the spring/strut comes up past the chassis so lifted the body to get clearance. With 3" its only just enough to get the body back on.

Can you cut the inner guards and lower the body?
Don't believe you can cert welded steering pieces.

Find a longer shaft and get it shortened would be a better at a guess

Would a Bighorn column be any longer?

Yea i can cut the front guards to get the body lower. It use to have no body lift and the front guards cut and the floor in the rear chopped to fit the rear suspension thru. Ive taken the old body off and scraped it and put a tidy body on
I don't want to cut the new body up as i want back seats. maybe its not possible
