Turkey, huh? Thats on my list of places to visit before I get old.

It's a Hilux, so I'm pretty sure it has a solid front axle. What you can do is get longer leaf springs to lift it up and/or get longer leaf shackles. Search around on this site for 95% of what you need. Welcome and have fun Sweet truck, too.

Well, if you it to look like the other one, you will have to put fender flares on, cut the back doors off, and paint it black...



You have a good looking truck. I'd just put the flares on and leave the rest of it alone.

You could also do a body lift. they're cheap and allow larger tires to be fitted.
lift blocks, longer leaf springs, body lift and longer shackles are mainly what you can do to achieve the lift.

Those pictures are AMAZING! I have not looked at all of them yet, but I will tomorrow. Thank you

Also, just curious, is your truck a Diesel or gasoline/petrol?

I guess that should have been bombok gibbe...

Is Adanli better or worse than Kara Denizli? (sorry, no Turkci keyboard so the letters are off!)

Honestly, if you are looking for an X-cab instead of the double cab, just sell your truck and buy and xtra-cab. For all the work required to swap cab styles, it just isn't worth it.

Or, bring your truck over state side and trade someone who has a super nice X-cab for your truck. We are literally drooling over your truck, and anyone in the US would LOVE to have it.

DC: Unless I missed somethign, I think he meant to say he wanted to raise his & put larger tires on; NOT change to an extended cab.

Ali: I think it's a great truck the way it is. Those tires look great for off-road, and unless you are trying to get more ground clearance, all that raising it will do is add weight, decrease your fuel economy, increase tire cost, shorten the life of drivetrain, and reduce the reliability. I'd leave it as is. What year is it?

Oh, well I completely missed that part then, my bad.

Bushwacker will be the best bet for the flares, though I do not know if they make em for those double cabs.

I know a lot of the guys who do the icelandic trucks have to fab their own, so you might check with them.
