Sooooooooooooooo, wot was wrong with your first post?

I am struggling to believe that you are seriously asking if lifting a II by 7" will affect your streering?
 
yes im really doin it and for each2.54 cm) of lift you need to bring the wheelbase outwards 1.5 inches (3.8cm) to retain the same tip over angle.

General concensus of opinion is that when you convert yer do the SPOA conversion the steering will be the least of yer problems. I've chatted to a few people who have done monster truck conversions and extreme suzuki lifts and they reckon it's not feasible to do a SPOA to a landy.
 
And raise your diffs by eggsackly zero inches so you still ground out in eggsackly the same way as you did before. You may increase your available articulation a little and you'll make a II look ridiculous all in one go..............oh, & if your using spacers to widen your wheel base you'll overstress a whole load of other components and break stuff.

If you do want to acutally increase the axle articulation of a leafer have a look at the gone 2 far kits.

that'll be 10.5" increased track width Can't wait to see the wheel arch extensions
 
AH deny it Yer ain't a fiief lessun ya bin kote bye da bizzys an aye int bin kote. Yet.
 
to solve my wheel problems im going to cut center out of my wheel then move it to outer and then big silly tires on and change diffs to arb air locking diffs
 
what ya gonna do about the extended axle & half shafts or are you goona make it all up by altering the wheel spacing also how are you gonna make the steering/tie rods fit?
 
It's obvious int it yer gonna move yer axles 7" lower then they are now and move em out 5 1/2" further out. did you think all the steering rods and linkages were gonna just stretch to fit.
