Why fit a body lift?

Body lifts are usually done to allow the fitment of larger tyres. However, there are other equally good reasons to do a body lift as it gets the sills up out of the way, provide more room underneath for the fitment of a second transfer case, provide space to clock the transfer case drive, other train modifications, and allow more space under the vehicle for air tanks and long range fuel tanks.

Will the Vehicle Modificaions Network Toyota Hilux Body lift Kit fit the Hilux Vigo??

Yes. The Toyota Hilux is also called the Vigo in some markets so if you are looking for a Toyota Virgo Body Lift kit, the VMN Toyota Hilux Body lift kit will fit perfectly.

Is a Body Lift Safe?

Body lifts are an allowed modification under the Australian Design Rules. Obviously body lifts would not be allowed if they were in any way unsafe. Careful attention to detail however is required to ensure the body blocks are correctly sized to match the original body mounts otherwise they can result in vehicle damage. Becaues the bulk of the weight of a vehicle is in the chassis, suspension and engine. These components are unaffected by a body lift so therefore, the body lift keeps the centre of gravity lower than an equivalent suspension lift would.

Is A Body Lift Legal?

Vehicle Modifications regulations vary from state to state. In Queensland, body lifts must first be approved for fitment by Queensland Transport before they are fitted. After they are fitted your vehicle will need to be inspected at a QT inspection station. At this inspection, all modifications to your vehicle will be inspected (including tyre sizes) and everything must comply with the vehicle regulations otherwise you will receive a defect notice and a fine.

Residents of other states should check with the regulatory authority in thir state to ascertain what is required for legal fitment of a body lift kit.

Does a Body Lift affect the SRS (Airbags) on my Hilux or Vigo.

No. The airbags are deployed by a SRS Computer located under the console. There are some safing sensors on the body near the radiator. The airbags are deployed when a threshold decelleration is sensed by the SRS computer and the safing sensors are also activated. Because every component dealing with SRS airbag deployment is mounted on the body and the method of airbag deployment, the Hilux / VigoSRS system is not affected by a body lift

What's in the VMN Body Lift Kit?

Each VMN kit includes all of the components shown in the photo but the number of some components may change from one model to the next. For example, the single cab Hilux/Vigo has an extra pair of mounts for the tub and obviously a tray back ute does not need any components to lift the tray. The VMN Hilux/Vigo Body Lift Kit includes all mounting hardware, all required body lift blocks and radiator drop brackets. A steering shaft extension utilising standard Toyota factory parts is also included. All bolts ar zinc plated to minimise rust and all steel parts we manufacture are powdercoated with a satin black finish. We do not include components to adjust bull bars, sliders and side steps as these are aftermarket accessories that vary from vehicle to vehicle.
