Paul.
Both Adam and Kyle went thru hell with the lift, its only 4inch
suspension not 6inch and a 3inch body.
But the viabrations were a bitch to rid.
Adam (original builder) originally had a double cardin shaft in there, which Kyle threw away tryin to sort it out. In the end with the engine and gearbox conversion he had to go with custom shafts anyway, that sorted it out a little with gearbox packers and the like.
Heres Adam driving it up Prado
Hill if I remember correctly

In the hands of the wrong person, this car could cause issues.. its very capable.
