Hi guys new member but have been reading for awhile I'm after some information about my Navara. It's a black d40 2010 Thai built dual cab currently with a 2 and 1/2 inch lift. I'm wondering if I was to put spacers to lift the front end how big can I go (2 - 3 inches). I know I will need to replace upper arms but what else? And mainly is it possible
Adjustable upper arms and strut spacers

You can run a spacer on top of a 2"lift to give you a total of 4"s if you run new UCA's as long as they can be adjusted to give you back your camber/caster ect.
for eg, "Super Pro" sell some good ones that use the Nissan Ball joint and are adjustable.
A set of extended brake lines would also be handy, i dont think its a dead set must but i would be throwing some on.

No ion the ball joint with any of the UCA's i know of, and yes i would look at how long the shocks need to be by flexing the car with no shocks installed or at least by unbolting the leaf end, that way you can compare how long they need to be and how much they need to compress.
No you wont need off set bushes if the UCA's are adjustable, the ability to adjust them negates the need to use offset bushes.
As far as where to buy them just google it mate and you will find heaps of different versions, like the ones "Super Pro" sell they have tonnes of stockists from ebay to Bursons.
you will find a few different one on ebay as said.

Hey mate,i did the setup your looking at...thai built truck,new upper arms coil spacers and lifted springs.if you search for
' budget lift round 2 ' i did a bit of a writeup.....i went spc upper arms and very happy.i like the spc ones as they really have no limit on the amount of droop you could possibley get.not saying they will give you more than the others but they dont have any stoppers if you decide to get crafty with your setup at a later date

I have a 4'' lift with superior top arms, there is no adjustability, and I have 1 degree positive camber, but I love the fact that they are rose jointed not ball jointed!!!! and yes, a trick I found is to use 4'' shocks from a 75 series lad cruiser setup to get more flex out of the rear, I used Rancho Rs9000 adjustables, thes come with spacers and bolt straight in no mods

Sorry mate got swamped...thought mine were 36 mm spacers..i had 2.5"lift spacers before but had to cut them down. . 45mm must the height as they are not 1/1...mine are the perfectlift ones...2 plates and some mabee 50mm tube to space them out.give them a google should be able to find a piccy..otherwise the more traditional 'billit'spacer is probably better...never had a prob with mine tho
Mate how do you find your CV angles with the 4 inch lift you have....
