Just adding some more info on (Modified) Toyota IFS CVs and shafts.

The following images show a Toyota CV Joint and Axle with a 930 CV joint with adapter installed.  The images came from http://www.brian894x4.com.

This 930 is stronger and replaces the inner cv joint, I'm just not to sure if it improves axle travel, I believe it's for a strength upgrade.  Keep in mind the axle may have to be replaced to match the new 930 splines.

Yep, the 930 also improves travel as well as strength and you can pick 'em up for $50

Think of the angle you could run.

Doesn't look to be a lot of travel in that shock though. I guess it is mounted a bit in board though.

It looks like you could get that with the shock. Its not easy to scale it without the measurements but it looks like it would go to the bumpstops. I'd be happy with 12" of travel on the front of my Vit.

if only we could. i love to have that set up in my vit, and if i had enough money for that set up, i'd buy a mint condition vit just to put it in!

i dont think we can get more than 8" travel with a strut set up in our vits. even if we took the shock (strut) off our front arms, the range of movement wouldnt be as much, as the CV would bind and resist any more movement, and the ball joints also.

with the ball joint, when lifting, its at a bad angle already, and when further droop is needed, it will bind bad, or pop out. similar to the rear a arm ball joint. thats why we need spacers.

we've all got vits that sit pretty high and all, but sacraficed is front ifs travel. with the yota set up, we can still have the hieght, and even higher, but also with the travel to match.

*drool*dream*drool*

maybe one day it'll become so popular that it'll be a kit conversion. i'd stay ifs for sure, even though i am already.

oh yeah, imagine the clearance under the front end with that set up. 35" tyres easy ay?

(sorry, my post does not contain much useful or tech related info, i am just very excited about having a set up like the above in my vit.)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that. The stock travel on the strut is around 4", adding 2" strut spacers free up 2" of unused strut travel giving around 44% more travel than stock. Drop the diff and add OME struts and you have 7.5" of strut travel. I've no idea what that is in terms of wheel travel but its nearly a 90% increase.

I keep looking at that. When you look closely the diff must be much lower than on the Zuk as the CV goes up a long way from horizontal, on a stock Zuk it only goes horizontal. It would be easy to get loads more travel from the Zuk by chopping the crossmember and lowering the diff a lot but the you would lose ground clearance.

The other thing to note is that it is a centered diff with longer axle shafts so you will get more travel at the wheel without any increase in angle at the inner CV. This can be done on our rigs as Mike has proven but it's not one of the simpler mods to do.
