Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2019
- This week we finish building my 2003 Toyota Corolla, fabricated and installed the lift. Now she is good to go! We used 2" spacers up front and 2 1/4" in the rear, and gained about 3.5" total! The car looks amazing.

Thank you very much!! Will do 😁
oh frick! i used to deliver parts to that shop all the time, i was your UPS driver for a bit. your shop fabbed up parts for a 5th wheel hitch i installed in my mom's tundra
Nice work! Lift spacers for this generatin of Corolla/Prius/Matrix/Pontiac Vibe are readily available on Amazon. They all share the same suspension parts thankfully, for around 120 bucks no less.
They do exist. But not 2" - 2.5" ones
@@DirtGarage You're right. Thought they were bigger. Only 40mm though
Can I get them for a 2000 corolla?
I have an 05. I w like to raise. Any sources? (It's also silver like the dudes on here.) I don't think I need that much raising, so maybe a combo of higher profile rims and tires and a small spacer will do it?
@@Frank020 Amazon. TEMA 4x4
I am trying to do this to my car, same car! Thanks for posting this.
No worries! Thanks for watching. More Corolla stuff in the works, so stay tuned!
Check out Puddin’s Fab Shop. He lifted his Corolla too.
Sometimes on an open diff drive you can hold the brake and floor it in 1st then let off just enough brake pressure to slowly move and the braking force against both axles will hold the spider gears and evenly give drive to both wheels....just don't power brake too long and burn up your transmission
I know of this trick, kinda works like the electronic LSD in the later models Toyotas. But I was not that committed to making that hill!
how much would you charge to make another set of your homemade bracket spacers $150-$200?!?
I’m subscribed buddy could you make these brackets / spacers for the front and rear for me ? I’ll pay for them ???
I realized my e11 (eu version pre facelift) had good ground clearance, im a big guy and can crawl below from the back to the front without jacks.
Previous owner also had some big tires installed, so big that the chassy would touch them while turning.
Would be fun to lift it a bit for all the underbody work ill have to do but ig it would result in worse aerodynamics
Found this while looking for a lift for my 2015 Corolla Sport Hatchback and I wish I could buy a lift like this 😍 So awesome!!!
Right on! Good luck lifting your Corolla. It's totally worth it!
@@DirtGarage did some research and turns out Im not allowed to do it in Australia, its illegal and voids all insurances even if a person is injured and it was not my fault. Heart broken!!!
@@anribender6598 where did u find that it’s not allowed? I wanted to do it with mine
Hey dude!
Sweet build!
I wanna do something similar to my rolla & was just wondering if you needed longer tierods & control arms for the lift? You didn’t mention so I assume no.
I just came into posession of a Corolla for almost no money. Plan to turn it into a dirt car.
How screwed up was the alignment after you did this lift?
Hey! That is awesome. I would highly recommend it 🤙 Alignment is good! I was able to get it aligned almost perfect after. Just a tiny bit of camber, but that can easily be fixed with cam bolts!
@@DirtGarage where are you located?
Can you make me some? I have a 2003 Toyota Camry and can’t find any after market ones .
I made the same strut spacers for mine, I can’t get the strut to bolt back up to the steering buckle, the control arm won’t lower enough, the spacers are only 3”, can you make explain how you got them in.
I only have 2.25" front and 2.5" rear spacers.
Haha that’s so awesome, great work mate
Thank you!
Great jib and nice video too, so clear. I will try this too on my avanza
I have same model year corolla and im totally doing this next year.
Awesome! More lifted Corolla's the better. Highly recommend it!
How did it go?
This is Awesome. I have an 05 Corolla that I'm wanting to make into a " Hunting Vehicle". I subscribed and like your link. Thanks for the info.
You can remove the windscreen washer bottle and replace it with a smaller bag washer that you can put in the engine bay. It'll make the front look heaps better.
Nah. I think it's funny having it hanging out front
You don't have issues with the CV axles being too angled? I'm thinking of doing something like this with my 2002 Toyota Corolla and just using Rav-4 struts instead of spacers because I don't have a shop. If it comes down to it I guess my brother in law has a welder... Also how are the ball joints? Alignment?
That is awesome. Love it.
Any issue with CV, control arms, ball joints, sway bar or tie rods, brake lines??
So far being lifted for 1 year, no problems to report at all :)
Highway speeds?
Can you make a video how to step by step make lift kit please
Lol nice job brother. 👏 I got a 03 camry putting widebody kit put a 2" lift using two way spring lifts. For $15 I would like 2 more inches so I can put some nice at tires or 20s
stumbled across this video while doing the same to my echo... Alllll the way out in CRANBROOK! sup homeslice, been working in fernie for years
I am in Cranbrook, buddy works at the shop we made the lift in!
Do you have any pictures of the rear spacers used?
Great work but you will have cv joints preplom
Not true, still on the same CVs, and still in great shape years later.
@@DirtGarage iteresting you made me think about do it too thanx
You actually can buy 1 inch lifts for Toyota Corolla now. Got it for my 07.
Good job nice car
Oh I love it so much!
I'm a front wheel drive off road guy. I own a 06 fwd highlander with 255/70/16 in front and 245/70/16 in rear wrapped with bfg ko2s on a 16x7 black rhino rumble wheels. I watch alot of gambler guys off roading. What parts do you need to make it reliable off roading????
You got the one and only part you need to be a reliable offroader. The Toyota badge 👍 In all seriousness, this Corolla is entirely stock (aside from the custom lift kit, and bumper) and it has been beaten on bush roads, and continues to be reliable! I have no plans to beef up the suspension because nobody makes anything to do so! So I'll continue to send it as is, you guys will know when it breaks, I'll for sure make a video.
Following my 1st a.
I'd like to lift my 14 Chevy Cruze. I wanna feel more safe when I'm on a fsr.
That would be awesome. Never seen a lifted Cruze.
@@DirtGarage currently it's great in the snow, dirt roads n muddy fields. Just need to keep eye out.
What's your thoughts on rubber spring spacers(on amazon) ?
I think I saw a very similar car for sale on Facebook market place, same year of corolla with that same style bumper. Always thought lifted corollas were very interesting.
That's awesome! I'm an amateur hurricane chaser and have been looking at old 4 runners, but you got me thinking about throwing a lift on my old Corolla. How bad is the ride? I'll be making long trips
Honestly I felt no difference in ride quality at all. If anything it was better, but I replaced the front struts at the same time as lift. But I still drive the thing just as fast around corners as before, and take it on long road trips. Its my daily driver and I love it! Would also highly recommend a 4Runner too..
@@DirtGarage yeah I definitely want a 4runner eventually, but I already have the Corolla. Thanks for the reply!
@@mattdrake6381 Totally fair, I love my Corolla. It's the perfect daily driver.
Hey I have a 06 Toyota matrix I want to lift but don't have the tools. I know Amazon sells 1.5 lift kits for cars but is there a way to go higher without doing yourself?
As far as I'm aware the only way to go higher is the way I did it. Sorry!
@@DirtGarage alright I guess I'll try to find some one. Thanks though!
What you can do is take the struts off or buy a extra set. Take it to a machine shop and they can fabricate a set of lift spacers for you. Cost is all depending on the shop. I would also do a frame drop also if the lift is going to be 2.5-3 inch lift. That's to help with the angle of the axles fro binding when at a higher height. They are just spacers that goes between the frame and it's bolts.
This is what us Honda CR-V guys do to our for lift. You can check out Honda Rescue Garage also for info.
I need this kit for my 2008 Corolla i want mine lifted
Hey. Trying to lift my Scion xB 2 a bit to make it more for camping. Any tips? I hear front struts and rear springs from a 2005 RAV4
How did it turn out
Pretty great. 2008 RAV4 Oreddy struts and Jeep springs in the back (springs cut to size)
Tomorrow going to look at some AT tires
What about the front axle any problems
im here in wa state if you could make me a set of spacers i have a 03 corolla i would gladly pay you for them
i kinda want to do this to my 06 rolla... SOB aint worth much with the miles on her.. and its a beast in the snow.. lift would make it better
That's awesome! I highly recommend it. Rides the same down the road. Just loads more clearance.
well thats good to hear. maybe i'll go about making a spacer kit when my tundras all done!
about 800k on the ol rolla and she still runs good!@@DirtGarage
@@001dman That is awesome! Mine is at 299,999.. So I have no idea, that's where it was when I purchased it.
my father bought mine new. hit 299k in 2009 or 10 (forget). going off oil changes its around 800k. sucsk they all stick at 299999@@DirtGarage
How many inch lift did it give ?
nice hoodie!
Noooo way your those guys that own that whole lot of
GAMBLER 400’s ur in my hometown small world
Huh? Haha
Hey it’s 5 years later! Are you still running this rig?
@@JordanLeahey sold it to build the Tacoma last year. Loved this car and miss it though!
Planning on doing something like this with a $900 Ford Freestar. Along with RWD conversion and rear seats deleted for welding equipment and toolboxes.
I have better plans for my F-150 😈.
Can you make some for my 2012 Kia soul
Brilliant
lol i have a video on my facebook of driving my stock civic out of that very puddle at 3:48
Did you replace them with factory Corolla struts or something else?
Yeah just some factory replacements
I like to know when doing any lifting like this aren't you going to change the driveshaft angle ?(cv joint)
It does change it obviously. But I have not had a problem, and it has been lifted for almost a year now.
Please lift a toyota vios e manual. I'm afraid it might be a life threatening change and cause driving aswell to be stiff and difficult to maneuver especially in curbs and highways. I would like to be able yo life it so it won't bump and scratch on parking stoppers and speed bumps.
So i also want to do this to my 2008 accord, its got 245,xxx miles so it wouldn’t hurt its value is less then 1k
Do it!
Willing to make another pair of lift blocks? Wana lift the wifes 06 carrolla now 😂
Honestly should have made templates, and got a shop to cut a whole bunch of them. Your not the first to ask. Could have been my channels first merch. Haha
Id buy a set
Totally forgot about this, im still in fot a set 😅
@Dirt Garage can we get the shop on the phone?? please asking for my 16yo son to have a higher seated car for his commuter to Highschool
Wouldn’t this have any cv or balljoint issues? Im planning on putting a kit in our 2011 corolla
So far so good! Slight and barely noticable passenger side CV wobble in harsh acceleration in first and second gear, but that's it.
Dirt Garage did the cv angle change much?
@@shawn_herrera Not a bunch. But it did. I have a theory that if I replace them the wobble will go away. Just because they where at the old angle for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and the sudden change has it sitting in a different wear spot.
Dirt Garage thanks! Im looking at these 40mm spacers on amazon that come with extended strut bolts. I might give it a try.
Haha. Love it.
Did you have to change the camber bolts? I saw a similar video and the guy said something about chamber bolts.
Nope!
@@DirtGarage oh sweet, I lifting my matrix and putting 27x8.5 tires on it.
This is insane. I’ve off-roaded in my stock 08, but I’ve wanted to do something like this with it for a while, maybe a bit taller and a wider wheelbase, knobbly tyres for added “wtf” factor.
How much damage to mpgs does this lift do?
Didn't even notice a difference in fuel
@@DirtGarage oh nice! Nothing to worry about then lol
camry otsu!
dude u just made a tank
Right? Thanks for watching 😁
I saw how you made the front spacers, but I'm not sure how you did the rears after looking at how the upper mount is designed when looking at Rockauto pics.
Any chance you have pictures of how you set those up?
At 2:40 you can actually see the rear spacers getting cut.
awesome video . did you have to adjust tie rods or any thing for the steering?
Nope! Didn't need it. Just got alignment after and she was mint
What is the tickness of the plate you use for the lift and the diameter of the pipe?
1/4 inch
You've got way more self control than me, how didn't you hit that puddle at 30 lol , keep up the great work! sick viddeos!
Toyota Life haha I was thinking exactly the same thing
Cheap Jeeper looool great minds think alike
Haha I would love to smash puddles fast!! But this is still my daily.. Hydro Locking would definitely not be ideal!
Dirt Garage exactly why I said you have more self control 😂 I’d have a totaled daily wouldn’t be the first time
@@Red_Beard_Builds Fair enough! I smash puddles in the Pickup all the time, I'd love to have an excuse to build another 3.4 and drop it in.
Did you use the stock shocks?
Yes. Doesent require longer ones because we put a spacer on top. We put new ones in with this lift though because they where worn out.
@@DirtGarage Awesome, I am busy modifying my 07, have you done any mods to the engine?
What did you have to death wheel (cut) in the trunk?
Rusted and striped nut from top of strut.
How many inches tall is the spacer i have a 91 corolla i have to do after seeing this video
2.5" rear. 2.25" front.
@@DirtGarage what did that yeild you to an actual lift over stock alltogether?
hows the cv joints/axle doing? no clunk or weird noise? 🤔
Over 3 years later and still the same CVS. Zero issues or noises.
@@DirtGarage Thnx bro
3.5 inch spacer lift front and back?
2.5 front and rear!
Where can i get spacers i got an 04 rolla
We built mine. So no clue.
Hello dirt you make strut spacer for Toyota tercel 1996?
Sorry I do not make spacers. I made it for my car, but don't sell them.
Do you change fwd to awd?
Not yet!
Hey just a quick question i just picked up a 02 carola for nothing. Wondering on the lift spacers what is the height you made them. I know with my jeep liberty independent suspension what ever spacer you install it doubles the amount of lift. Is that the case with this. Oh and did you make the spacers level or did they have to be angled side to side?
Hope to hear something back a little info will make it easier to tear into it. Thanks
It's not quite double. But close. Mine are 2 1/4" in front and 2.5" in the rear. Not angled or nothing.
@@DirtGarage is the 2.25 and 2.50 the actual height of the spacers you made or the total lift. Any other little tips if you have time would be awsome.
Thanks for the quick response bud! You are one of the few I was able to find who has done this. Was sitting here wondering if it was possible. Thanks again
@@cbpf9 It was about 4" total lift with those spacers we made.
@@DirtGarage and no problems with axles or stock arms?
@@cbpf9 Nope. Never an issue for the 3 years we have been running it.
What size tires are those?
Tiny. 185/60r15 I believe! Still stock, it needs bigger rubber baaad
@@DirtGarage yea i think i can get away with 215/65r15 i need new tires so its perfect timing and toyo rebate starts tomorrow.
@@ReadySetReel did you put the given tire size on your car and did you ha e any issues?
Hows the angle on that axle?
Axle angle is just fine 🤘 No issues yet and I'm hard on this thing.
being a demolition derby guy. toyota cv axles are indestructibles.
Whats the total lift spacer
I believe we made them 2" 1/4 to 2" 1/2. Lifting the car more than 3" easily.
@@DirtGarage maybe i can try 3"😂
🙈🙈🙈
