Complete lift kit

Hi i'm looking weekly on the net to find the best kit and nothing pop.


Greasable pin . 4 packs of leaft , shocks , u bolt etc.... for a 3'' complete kit
This is for a DD so no need of flex.



What do you used . As i'm in Canada i'm not looking for a 1500 $ kit lol


Looking also for Black door handle (outside ) .


Any input ?


Thnx Marc

I have Old Man Emu springs, Trail Gear greasable shackles, Bilstein 5125 shocks, Sky Off Road Designs heavy duty tie rod and Sky Jacker steering stabilizer. I shopped it out and got everything for under $1,000 shipped. Great comfortable suspension for a daily driver that occasionally finds its way offroad.

Yep, front and rear OME. CS008A / CS008B for the front and CS009 for the rear. No modifications needed. There are complete kits out there like trail gear and all pro but they are for more extreme off roading and require hanger modification.


By the way, you can't just come on here and say you have a FJ45 and not share pictures - let's see that thing! That's what I would like to do for my next restoration project.

Ha,HA not the perfect section but only one pic....lol


Long story short i'm in Quebec Canada so no more fj45 here .
This one start life as a Fj40 , stretch frame . Toyota Stout 1965 bed ( modified to fit )from Pensylvania
The top not in the pic came from Oregon .
Tub , Fenders ,1/2 doors , Hood side fender . all from Aqualu in B.C. Canada .


Long project that i just sold 2 month ago .


I've bought 2 1982 hilux, one SR5 truck plus a lots of parts to start the next project . But you can't imagine how rusty they are !!!!!
I have a lot to learn about those truck and my goal is to built it as stock as possible .

Here is the pic and the link to the build up ( but in french) .

Nice! That stout bed looks pretty good on there. I'll have to look (can't read French) through the build thread when I get a moment. If you need help your your pickup build scope out my thread and feel free to hit me up with questions.

I love Quebec! I go up to Mont Tremblant and Mont Saint Anne all the time to go skiing. Love the area and down town Quebec. Actually Le Parmesan is my favorite Italian restaurant ever! We eat there at least once every time we go and The owner ALWAYS remembers our names even if we haven't been for a couple years - absolutely amazing!
