    i.e what are you running ?
    I run 90mm of lift at the front my guard to bottom of rim measurement is 835mm both sides (I run aftermarket upper control arms and modified struts too)
    My CV angles are much the same as when I had an OME lift @ around 800mm.
    I have a good margin of safety, so if you are brave you could squeeze another 10-20mm out of it and still maintain 60mm of drop but the CV's would be at the point of binding (all Prados are a little different but my drivers side was "just" binding at around 915-920mm droop with the drop installed)
    Playing at this height requires a lot of care and measuring!

          I can't say as I haven't seen one in the flesh.

          The factory plates need to be spaced down around 12mm and the the TJM plate around 8mm.

          If you didn't want to space the factory ones down some selective remodeling with a hammer "May" provide enough clearance
          A little trimming of the TJM plate would also probably provide the clearance required without using spacers.

            Good work Mick,

            I will grab a kit next month off ya, once the bank account settles down alittle after the transmission mods I am doing

            I like the idea of sorting out the CV angles, should prolong the service life and also reduce the chance of snapping one in the scrub.

                Next lot should be ready mid week for those that missed out. I'll PM everyone who missed out on the first batch as soon as they are ready.

                      Due to PM chaos I'm not sure if I missed anyone?

                      By now I should have contacted everyone who wanted one, via PM and they are either in the mail or about to be after payment clears.

                      Shoot me another PM if I missed your orders.

                        Original post amended:

                        For future orders I will need a contact phone number, this is only required for the Express bag. Australia Post requirement apparently.

                              I will be in contact soon matey, will order one to fit along with my suspension after tax time. This kit is an added bonus to a 2 inch lift yes as it straightens out the cv's yes ? and if coil spacers are added it will give the cv's a noice look yes ?... so interested in this sir.
