How thick are they?
Or what is the thickest you can use?

General rule of thumb is 2" maximum, along with 1" diff drop spacers to correct drive shaft angles.

Surfenstein on here produces multi plate kits allowing you to decided how much to lift in 10mm increments.

Thanks, I had some 2" ones made, fitted them today and My wheels are \ .... / I'm having problems getting them straight.

I thought I had maybe gone too big with 2"

I'll have a good bash at it tomorrow.

2" is ok as a maximum but you need the camber adjusted to compensate, also it alters the toe-in and alignment, mine looked a might "bow-legged after the spacers were fitted

Yep, mine (actually it's the wife's Isuzu) looks terrible, the wheels are like \ ... /
I took it to be aligned and the guy said there wasn't enough thread on the bolts to do it. (it was about 3.30 I think he was being lazy)
I'll have a good look tomorrow. The ride is so much better though. vast improvement.

I usually fit 1 1/2" its much less hassle.

2" is max, but you will struggle to have a enough movement on the cams if you have any extra lift on torsion bars. All trucks are slightly different, some are fine, some are hassle.

TonyN, did you get my email on 4x4toys? Looking for a price for complete 2"bodylift with bumper brackets etc.

cant speak for Isuzu's but with 2" spacers (nowt on the torsion bars) there was more than enough cam adjustment to get the wheels upright, in fact i over did it a bit and really need to adjust em back a bit, i wore out a decent pair of BFG's before i got the nuts to have a go at this, it was far easier than i'd imagined, theres always a "sharp intake of breath" and a shaking of heads when you mension messing about with steering ajustment, but as long as you take your time and have a decent ammount of common sence you can get adjustment good enough to be able to steer the truck without effing up the tyres or running off the road, the shop does it with lazers i did it with string, lenghts of 2x1 and a tape measure, bes t bet is undo both ends of the track rods before you start on the camber/castor, once you have that near enough you can then do the tracking, (or even take it for the final "proper" job, thay dont sem to mind doing the tracking but mension camber and they start $hiting and mensioning large sums of money

Sorry alan i was being pedantic.Loads of people on here asked me to produce a ball joint spacer kit,so when i did,in their thousands i might add,no body wanted them.So because im so ####ed off with it all,you will have to ring neil and ask him how much he selling the kits for now.Sorry chap.
