Hey guys
I have a Rodeo with a 3-4" lift with upgraded torsions, calmini control arms, new leaf springs and extended shackles. I was thinking of getting rid of the shackles as I am aware they are illegal and for good reason (with potential for chassy damage and rolling). I have talked to someone I know and they had huge difficulties trying to fit the 2" body with a 2" suspension (had to adjust brake loading lines, safety pins on the chassy, splines on the steering, position of the gearbox and stick etc).
Has anyone else fitted 2" suspension and 2" body to a rodeo with no problems? I really want the 4" all round and am not going to bother with the effort if I can't have it or have issues with braking under load afterwards and reaching the gearstick.
So really my questions are:
Have you done it?
What, if anything extra did you have to do?
Is it worth the hassle?
Cheers
