Leaf spring lift blocks

[Jay440]

Has anyone fitted lift blocks on to the rear leafs in a d22?
I had a look underneath,and it looks like the hand brake cable will get in the way, they sell kits to suit on ebay. Only want to go up 25 mm

do you have stock springs?

 

[Jay440]

Yes stock springs

don't bother with blocks etc.
stock springs sag like crazy. get replacement springs which will do whatever size lift you want.

Blocks won’t make stock springs sag anymore, and being in an under powered vehicle like a navara ,it isn’t going to put any strain on them lol

you miss the point, the springs are already stuffed. why waste time and money on lifts when you will be fixing the springs regardless and getting a free lift in the process.

I fitted the lift blocks..plus had my springs reset and an additional 2 leafs put in--1 std and 1 helper.
The handbrake cable routing needs some attention

remember to extend the bump stops too..as you'll invert the leaf's all too quickly with heavy loads both static and dynamic
