lc80::: Body lifts would look good aesthetically speaking, pero maraming parts ang madadamay, ie, steering column, pedals extension, tranny, park brake, speedometer cables, engine parts that are body mounted. Daming babaguhin, while on suspension lifts, your'e basically adjusting the suspension which is easier tasks and financially, for under budget people like me, hehehe. :D

Actually, the Body Lift Kit is sometimes referred to as the poor man's lift.

In most cases the body lift kit is significantly cheaper than a suspension lift. But as discussed above, there is a trade-off. Personally, I'd rather trim off the fenders than utilise the body lift, your vehicle will never feel the same after.

Opinion ng isang mechanic ng 4x4 sa pampanga: Kung less than 2 inches lang ang body lift, konti lang ang modifications (often position lang radiator or power steering yata). Cost is very much less kasi sa part mura lang.

Sa suspension lift, mahal ang inaabot (lalo na kung mga independent suspension type) kasi mahal ang mga imported ng suspension lift kits. Locally made ay hindi rin available. Kung pasadya it could be done (but often wala po itong guarantee na engineered properly kasi hindi naman engr yung nagtrabaho) at a certain cost.

When I wanted my 4x2 frontier lifted, he quote me P7,000 for a 3 inch bodylift (all in na). And at least P27,000 daw kung suspension lift (it could go higher kasi he haven't done any frontier yet). Sa internet a 4x2 frontier front suspension lift ng fabtech is about US$500 na for the pair (almost the same na ng local quote e wala pa ang labor, shipping cost, taxes, rear suspension lift, etc).

my 2 cents.

if you have a patrol you can easily lift it by putting spacers on the top of the springs. not more than an inch thick. just like the packers old man emu has. you can have it made sa mga rubber manufactures and will only set you back mga two thou the most
