[Camfitz30]

Sorry about my mountains of posts guys but I'm still learning


What I want to know is where's the cheapest/best place to get body lifts for my d21 terrano from?

Get a alloy bar and make your own, or some 50mm box section

tbh if you need instructions on how to make a bodylift you shouldnt really be making it

but the best right up ive seen to install one on a terrano was on NPORA forum
its a terrano/pathfinder dedicated forum with a heap of info

Thats where i learnt how to do mine.

I used the poly blocks from trademe, pre drilled and hasslefree.

There are 10 body mounts, 2 at the rear go into captive nuts (nut is attactched to the body, and the middle ones are too. i had alot of troubles with my rear ones, had to drill through the rear floor to access them to so i could apply pressure.

easiest way to lift the body,

Make sure everything that is bolted to the chassis, that is also bolted to the body is unbolted. i.e there is a driveshaft loop, handbrake cables (just undo the mounting points, not the whole thing) etc.

either the radiator mounts will need to be modified, or the shroud modified.

loosen all the mounting bolts for the body, start on one side, take the bolts out, and jack the body up with either 2 scissor jacks or 2 bottle jacks, if it doest lift off the chassis, theres something still holding it there.

once you have lifted it enough to fit lift blocks slide them in, and put in bolts. once all of that side are done, and properly aligned then drop that side down and go onto the other side, repeat.

to reach the bolts that are in the cab, the 2 rear ones are under the rear seats, easy to find. the ones in the front are under the pedal box, remove trim then lift carpet.

Make sure you get spring washes, or nylock nuts, last thing you want is for the bolts coming loose, and the body sliding off the chassis when you go around a corner.

That should be about that.
