Hey

i have a 87 Double cab hilux.
Have just moved my front diff forward and am wanting to do hi-steer mod.
Problem i can see tho is if arms are running above the leaf springs they arent going to leave much of a gap under engine sump.
How have you guys got around this or hasnt it been a problem?
Im not sure as to weather i need to chop my sump up and put the pick up at the rear of the engine or not so any help would be great.

also if anyone has any hi-steer parts floating around that arnt needed let me no please.

thanks
Nick

when i had mine, we didnt worry about hi steer or diff or sump mods, they all came when we did coil cinversion and run 35's
