Suzuki XL-7 build- “XL7-UP”

[The_Lobbster]

More test fitting. I will probably need a drop puck for the strut tower mount. Strut is my limiting factor right now for down travel, up travel is about spot on compared to stock. I need to drop my coils in next to see if they’ll even work. They are from a 2wd 2nd gen Tacoma IIRC. 45lbs more than stock, and about 1” longer. Hoping for around 2” of suspension lift with them.

Noticeable track width increase when viewed from above. Can also see axle centerline is pushed slightly forward. A little hard to see from the pic, but can tell overall.

Passenger side CV is a stub type, drivers side is a flange. Pulled the CV, chopped it, had it machined at work, and will weld a plate on to be able to run equal length flanged shafts.
