My cousin has asked me to find him price to buy 6 inch lift kit for his new ford F350 its crazy its like 6 meters long and he got the muffler guys to put 2 holes in the tray and put pipes like the trucks have sticking straight up into the air on either corner. its makes some crazy sounds.

not sure if this is legal l but it cost him heaps and also had custom extractors made at the same time . he says it legal cause its like a truck or is one cause of the size of truck but i am not convinced by this...his a nut. anyays he asked me to find him 6 inch lift kit plus also. 8 stud 22 inch rims plus tyres...which are to be chunky...he was told that you cant get 8 stud wheels here for that car here so they have to order thme especially for this car from overseas......any places to find this stuff in oz or overseas would be great.

Try ringing an opposite lock store and see if they can order some in. Or email them. Now get the F Series shite off this forum!

Nah bugger that. I want pics

Here are some pics of what I am imagining it would look like. My guess is that the first one (minus the lambo doors) would be the closest to reality. But here they are:

24 inch lift kit :lol:

Hmmm... I serviced my car the other day, and getting underneath it is always annoying. Maybe I should go the 24 inch lift kit on my GTS-T. My Nismo adjustable coil over suspension just doesn't compare!

Geez you guys are nasty....My car is a R33 Nissan Skyline and this is

the only car forum i use so i thought i could get some help from you guys. or set me in teh right direction...since you are smart......lol and i have had problems looking through and sifting through all the crap on the net. i thought maybe some of you guys would know or be able to set me on the right direction and i thought it would be ok to post here as this is the general automotive discussion section...For disussion relating to all other cars, bikes and other powered vehicles.. Im located in Melbourne Victoria

, the rims on that last one would be what he is looking for i guess.

yeah that red one with the exhasut coming up is sort of like his but his pipes are bigger. he wnats 22' inch rims but im guessing you dont put fat tyres on those....well any help would be apreciated

these are some of the F750 i think not the F350

Hey,

You'll get better answer at a forum that specialise in offroading than here as the car in question is a Ford F350.

Google for some F series based forum as you will get better answer, advice and knowledge from the owners mouth.

Might worth asking the guys at www.outerlimits4x4.com about these or other offroad based forums.

Cheers

A 6 inch lift would make it look like this

Which is just stupid.

A 4 inch suspension lift is usually called a 'superlift' as you need to change alot of other parts in the car to accomodate for the extra height on the chassis.

To go higher you will need a body lift.

1 of our work sites south of Cairns has 6 of these new F350's as company cars.

I have driven 1 once, and they wont go much more than 130 km/h. With a suspension lift and 22's it would be a pig to drive

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
