  • 07 120 series - 30mm or 50mm lift? need advice please

    hi all

    first time prado/4wd owner- trying to decide if we should put a lift kit on our vehicle- my mechanic thinks only a 30 mm lift but some 4wding friends say 50mm.

    We tow a camper trailer and are wanting to do 4wd day trips and be able to do trips in the outback and the victorian high country.

    Not planning on doing extreme 4wding.

    We are doing the oodandatta track next month.

    Would love to hear feedback on how a lift kit will effect the way the car drives around the town as i have little kids so do a lot of town driving.

    thanks all

    Lift and tyres will actually improve the way the car handles on road owing to the improved compression and rebound damping of after market shocks over the very soft standard kit. 50mm lift is fairly standard. Do that and you'll be happy.

    The only caviate I'll put on it is to make sure you get decent shocks and that the springs are correctly rated for what you're planning to do. IE: towing with a load in the back.

      You'll definitely want a lift doing the Oodnadatta track track, not necessarily for the ground clearance but you'll find the factory suspension too soft at speed and it will wallow and make the car feel unstable.

      If you don't plan on doing any serious off roading then either lift will do but I think you'd be happier with the 50mm in the long run.

      By the sounds of it you've gone to ARB. Just make sure you get the springs that match your needs. The rear will be hard to pick if you're not running air bags as it will need to be firm to tow the camper but can be a little harsh unloaded.
