In this video I cover how to install a body lift in an n70 Hilux (2005 - 2015). I found some of the instructions included in the kit I bought to be a little bit confusing so I tried to clarify everything here.

Hey man. Are you from QLD. If so how did u legalise the body lift or are you just running it illegal. Because I want to do one but with all the new fuss happening at the moment idk.
@RyvalCreative6 жыл бұрын
Hayden Lees hey mate I am in QLD, there’s a couple of ways to have it legal you can either have a combination of 2” body 2” sus and 2” wheel diameter increase. but only two of those, you can’t have all three. Or you can have all three with a mod plate and what you can get mod plated really depends on who you know as some will do a max of 2” body 2” sus with 285’s and others will mod plate bigger lifts and tyres.

Got me buggered why people call it an N70? Ive owned one for 10years now and no where on compliance plates, hand book or even ordering parts is it refered to an N70 even from Toyota. Depending on options its a KUN25 or like mine KUN26R
@RyvalCreative4 жыл бұрын
Yeah it’s actually not an N70, N70 would be a late 80’s model hilux. The only reason I put N70 in my titles is because I know people search that while looking for this model hilux haha the first generation hilux’s (late 60’s / early 70’s) were an N10 and the next gen was N20 and maybe that’s how some people came to n70 for this model. But yeah I don’t know why people call it N70 either.

Hey mate how did u end up getting your 285's to fit didn't look like you made video?
@RyvalCreative5 жыл бұрын
Nah didn't end up getting around to that yet haha I should get onto that but theres a couple of steps. 1. You will have to find a tyre shop and tell them you want the caster adjusted all the way forwards or as far forwards as they can. (I used Bob Jane at Keperra if your in Brisbane). do this step first so you can do the rest yourself at home. 2. I cut a bit out of the front bumper using an angle grinder but you can use a hacksaw or jigsaw or anything that works its just plastic. I just took a little bit at a time and used a bit of paper to mark a template so I could match it on the other side. I had to put the wheels on to do this so i could see where they would rub. 3. If they still scrub on the back you may need to remove some of your flare if you have flares and/or flatten the metal pinch weld along the back. there should be posts on facebook about how to do this, it's not very difficult just take your time and do it neat if you have to but i didn't end up needing to do this at all.

Ryan Cameron cheers heaps for the reply 🤘 that's pretty good you don't scrub at all with 285's I'm running 32/11.5 on neg 22 rims and I just scrub on full lock hitting a bump, but I plan on going to 33's or 285's I just wasn't too keen on body mount chopping for resale reasons, what offset are you running too btw
