ok some body said the found a way to bag the front end of a luv to get 4 in of lift. but i can only go about 3-3 1/2 cause my upper a arm will hit the rim if its n e higher so does n e one know if there is a way to move the control arms down. i know how to move the axle down but not the control arms so n e ghelp is appreciated. if it comes down to it i will just use wheel spacers or go to solid axles. matt

While not directly related to your question (it may be a hidden fix, though), this is something that I would recommend to anyone going to higher lift with the IFS on "Isuzus". I will be doing this when I finish with other modifications.

I have seen somewhere a spacer kit and shorter poly bump stops being sold for newer Isuzu stuff. I don't know that newer 'zoo parts would fit, but the spacer seems like a pretty simple torch and grinder project. I'll try to dig out that link, maybe contact them and see if they're interested in making some LUV parts available as well.

They should fit all Isuzus as they go by the number of bolts holding the ball joint, and here is a link: ball joint flip kit
