So I recently totaled my beams swapped celery... Now I have an st, and I want to lift it... Which struts / springs could fit on it to give it a bigger lift? Anything off the old toyota trucks?

emm, ah, ohhh, what?
why do you want to lift? do you have lowering springs, and want to go to oem? but maybe air suspension comes to mind..... but almost no one goes the way of the lift.. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

Maybes 4runner? The front calipe setup is supposed to fit the front GT knuckle so that might be a lead. I know you mentioned havig an st so you might have to swap different parts around to make it work, I don't think you'll just simply swap struts and be done with it. Be interesting to see done tho, also look into the mini tacomas possibly.

The spacers are good. And they reduce uptravel, making room for taller tires, further raising the ride height.
Combining the suspension lift with taller tires would get you to your desired ride height without making the arms have to "reach down" as far. What is your desired ride height? Maybe you can measure how many inches high your crossmember is now and we can compare it to where you want it to be and come up with something. |
