PHAT Bars Forged Diff Drop For N70/ N80 Hilux
The next evolution of our original PHAT Bars Diff Drop, now upgraded to forged construction for improved strength and consistency.
We were the first to market with a true 3-point mounting system. This version keeps that proven design and takes it to the next level! With over 10,000 Hilux diff drops sold we know a thing or 2 about correcting the CV angles in a Hilux!
Why Do You Need a Diff Drop?
If you’re running a lift over 2”, your CV angles increase.
That leads to:
- Premature CV boot wear
- Increased stress on CV joints
- Higher chance of failure off-road under load
A PHAT Bars diff drop corrects the CV angles back to factory spec and takes load off the drivetrain.
Why PHAT Bars
Forged Construction
- Stronger and more consistent than fabricated alternatives
- Harder to replicate with cheap copies
- Built to the same strength and quality PHAT Bars is known for
DONT FALL FOR THE CHEAPER SPACER STYLE DIFF DROPS
- Spacer diff drops only roll the diff they don't actually drop it
- It weakens the way the diff is mounted
- Doesn't drop the diff enough to eliminate CV boot rub @ 3 inches of lift
LARGEST Diff Drop
- Largest drop physically achievable in a Hilux
- Improves CV angle as much as possible without compromising geometry
3-Point Mount System
- Includes our signature 3rd mount to the crossmember
- Reduces flex in the diff
- Supports both the diff and CV system under load
Built to Fix Known Weak Points
- Reduces stress on CVs when off-road
- Helps prevent premature wear and failure
- Strengthens overall front-end reliability

The PHAT Difference
At PHAT Bars, we don’t cut corners and we certainly don’t outsource. Every product we create is crafted from the ground up right here in Australia, using premium locally sourced materials. Here's how we do it:
1. Aussie Sourced Steel
We start with the best—high-grade Australian steel, chosen for its strength, reliability, and durability in the harshest conditions. Proudly supporting local suppliers.
2. Welded On Site
Our experienced team gets to work welding each component with precision. Whether it's a bullbar, rear bar, or side steps—every weld is done by hand, in-house, by skilled fabricators who know 4x4s inside out.
3. In-House Powdercoating Facilities
Once fabricated, we move the product to our state-of-the-art powdercoating booth. We control every stage of the finish for a tough, long-lasting coat that looks as good as it performs.
4. Quality Checked & Carefully Packed
Every item is inspected thoroughly before it leaves our hands. From weld integrity to powdercoat consistency, we’re perfectionists. Then we package it securely, so it gets to you in pristine condition.
