The owner of that sport isn't a member on here now ...he is called "Kevin Prentice" ...not sure if he's still active on any other sites or not

I'm told the truck was broken for spares

FRN-71E what has happened to your avatar ??

Yours is on coils ? that other one is on leaf springs :wink:

I have trooper plus 2" coils in mine from Pro Comp and have wound the torsion bars up 2" and done a ball joint flip to get some camber back, though I needed to add an extra 3mm shim behind the top suspension arm to bring it back in line as I wanted it big enough to get 32" tyres under without a body lift, its funny as my wheels went \---/ rather than /---\ which they should have done with a lift, so I suppose if you get the opposite effect than me you could remove a shim if the ball joint flip throws it out more, though that can increase downward travel that is lost in the torsion bar wind up.
also again, its worth trimming the upper bump stop to gain travel.

I have a coil retainers given to me by a good friend on here Alex here is a pic.

Also a good source for parts in your part of the world is here

It says Isuzu but covers Fronteras, a guy called Geeves is the local guru, tell him I said Hi :lol:

OI... DRIFT... With a lift mate the wheels will go like \__/ because the lower control arms are shorter then the top ones. The ball joint flip will push the top ball joint out even further the higher you go. Think of it as trying to fit 2 railway curves together, like this (( if you were to push them together they wouldnt fit. For them to fit the inner curve has to have a tighter radius.

Hang on, Im drawing a picture.....

Here we go:

Does that make sense?

Sorry dude

I just had to do that

Ill get you some pics in the morning :wink:

Not on mine Phil, me and Bernie had to do surgery to fix it :lol:

bloody weird car mine and the bolt heads are made of putty :evil:

Cant be lawrence, because the bottom arms are shorter then the top arms if you measure them from the axis point to the centreline of the ball joint. So the bottom arm scribes a smaller radius.

Adding the extra 3mm shim to the top each side sorted my \---/ out, though the ball joints are flipped, this could have contributed.
Just to confirm, its outside edge tyre wear.

Its transformed the handling to.
