Daihatsu F75 Rocky Body Lift

Q. Hello, I am planning a small lift for my Daihatsu F75 Rocky only an inch or so using longer shackles front and back. I have been told doing this lift could alter the wheel alignment and or steering. What do you see as being a problem if any thing at all?

Thank you,
Jimmy

A. Increasing the shackle length shouldn’t affect anything except your center of gravity. I recommend that along with the lift you equip with a wider than stock tire and rim combination to increase your tracking stability for safety purposes. And getting the alignment checked after the modification would not be a bad idea at all.
