Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
You will have to fit oxygen bottles as well as the air is quite thin up that high, why do you want to go so high?

Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
thats a funny way over shortening the wheel base.
The blimin control arms would be near vertical.

Longer superior arms, problem solved

Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
i just seen them on trademe i didnt think they would make them that high... and they were cheap
Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
7 inches is pretty high and would need alot of modifications, I have a shorty with a 3inch lift and that is plenty high enough, even 3 inchs seems too high.

3'' on a swb is equal to a 6 '' on a lwb

Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
taz01 where did you get yours from?? and what other work do you have to do to run a lift like that?
Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
Might be better if you paid up accounts owing before you start another......

It's in regards to Ramp Over Angle, Longer wheel base needs to be lifted higher to have the same ROA as a Short wheel base
Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
So is that the only thing it affects?

Other way round, e.g. 3" on LWB equals 4" maybe 4.5" lift on a SWB depending on truck.
Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
Does it come down to what brand of springs you use, I can not see why there should be a difference in ride heights between swb and lwb unless some has used swb spring in a lwb or vice versa?
Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
isnt it because the springs are how would you say it tougher because of the weight of the long wheel base..

Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
yes but they are made to suit that vehciles weight so a 3in kit for a shorty should give the same lift as a lwb 3in kit in a lwb.
Different brands give different lifts and the age and spring rates all affect the actual lit height

Re: NISSAN SAFARI LIFT?
If only you could do a spring lift without worrying about all your other factory components.
This is where I started looking for mine (Note: SWB):

In the end your upwards of $4000 AUD for components alone.
