Frequently Asked Questions
Why fit adjustable upper control arms to a lifted HiLux?
A suspension lift changes wheel alignment. Adjustable arms provide additional camber and caster correction to help restore suitable settings for your HiLux.
Is a wheel alignment required after installation?
Yes. Blackhawk requires a wheel alignment immediately after fitting. Installation should be completed by a qualified mechanic with specialist 4WD suspension knowledge.
Do the ball joints require maintenance?
Yes. Grease the ball joints before installation and at regular service intervals. Keep the adjustment threads unlubricated, as specified in Blackhawk's fitting instructions.
