    what would you recommend for a 2 - 3 in lift on a 1st gen 2003 tundra? Diff drop or not?

    Just go a modest lift and save needing to get a diff drop and save your CVs. Doesn't make sense to lift your car yet lower your diff?

      My hilux has one with a 3 inch lift, the diff stays inside the front cradle. So it doesn’t reduce clearance.

    G’day mate I noticed the SuperPro kit only drops the diff and doesn’t move it forward like the Munji kit does. Thoughts?

      Moving the diff forwards or back is irrelevant to fixing the cv angle. How does the munji kit move it? As they typically use the same bolt holes factory mounts fitted to

      @@kerrodriley7536 What’s your source? How would it not correct cv angle? There are more than one points of rotation. Therefore angle is on more than a single plain. I’d educate yourself by checking out the Munji kit before making assumptions about bolt placement. What’s the driveshaft spacer for?

      Hi Mate,
      SuperPro's Engineers found during their testing that there wasn't any real benefit to moving it forward as well dropping it and as such their kit just lowers it. Munji has obviously decided to move it forward slightly as well which is fine but ultimately the main benefit is from dropping the diff lower to reduce the CV angle that a lift kit being fitted creates.

    Hi, What about on a full compression cycle of the suspension? I have broken 2 CV's essentially because the angle of the CV at full compression & possibly the length, same issue but in reverse. My thoughts are the diff drops maybe should be half of the current kits. Also makes the angle if the tailshaft horrible, fix 1 problem & create 2 more. Car btw is a PX Ranger.

      Hi Duane,
      In regards to the tailshaft angles have you got a tailshaft correction kit installed? Some lift kits come with these as standard and some don't but we always use a tailshaft correction kit for our lift kits on rangers due to the horrible angles they get after a lift.
      For the full compression cycle of the suspension it could be worth looking at longer bump stops to not allow the suspension to compress as far if that's where you are finding the issues. With CV's there is many products available to help reduce the chance of breaking them but unfortunately nothing is 100% full proof as it's a part that gets alot of force sent through it.

      @@FulcrumSuspensions1976 thank you, I have now purchased some longer bump stops, the diff drop kit was bought from you guys at the Coopers Plains branch, however it is a Road Safe brand, so unsure about the tailshaft correction. I did email Road Safe directly but never received a reply.

      In NSW we have one Fulcrum workshop at Arndell Park. Otherwise the rest of NSW is covered by our dealers.

    DIFF DROP your 200 Landcruiser at 50mm is a MUST or they will blow CV's easily. 750nm of torque is the culprit.

    My 120 prado has had a 2 inch lift for years. Never had an issue. Still has the original cv's. It all depends on how you treat your vehicle offroad. Dont be a dick and drive to the conditions and you're all good. Waste of money. Just repacked both and ready for another 300ks 👍
