[Toasty]

That's the same kit I got.

I used that kit on my friends '94 SR too :sombrero:

Hey eurosonic, when you did the body lift did you have to do anything to the shift linkage and other cables? I have the same Gen 2.5 as you.

 

[cmroy94]

I know that it didn't note anything in your post about all the cables but others have told me that you would have to extend all the cables, I don't know if I read this somewhere but it said our trucks didn't have to worry about that? Wasn't sure. Thanks for your help!

no, you don't need to extend cables or linkage.

I know I'm asking a lot of noobish questions and I apologize but did you have to tweak the transfer case shifter at all? And was there a concern for front cables? Again I appreciate it!

 

[eurosonic]

there is no tweaking required. Just be careful when you lift the body form the frame when installing the mounts.

Thanks for the help, you inspire to want to build a unique ride!

I didn't know your rig was an overland-submarine hybrid-like, amphibious personnel carrier type, red october vehicle thingy. very impressive. cool videos.

EDIT: Oh ya, nice E30. I havent had anything beside a european car in so long.

Here is mine.

[eurosonic]

I sold the E30 w/o getting too much into it. Too many projects on hand.

 

[Dolomiti]

Those are nice set of wheels. Really like that E28.

I still have a fetish for BMWS. This is my current money pit.

Thats funny, guess good taste in cars can go from euro sedans to lifted 4 wheel drives!

@dolomiti I want to see a pick of that m535i. Also, that e30 has an m30 b36 swap from a 635 csi.

@eurosonic Nice Imola blue M3! I think money pit is the correct term for any car that you love that isn't a new car with warranty. There will ALWAYS be something that a car needs that you love. It is truly a never ending project!
