    It's better to have the suspension lift, para pag di mo nagustuhan ang ride pwede ka pa bumalik sa OEM spex as kimpOy said earlier.

    Patience is virtue, kelangan mo ng mahabang pasensya pag aayos ng tamang suspension settings. Hanggang ngayon after 8 coils and 10 shox, di pa rin ako kuntento sa gusto ko firmness ng ride on tarmac at the same time give me the long extension strokes that I need on offroads.

    Yung 1" body lift within the specs of the L200 platform pa iyan. After all, the Strada is a body (and suspension) lifted L200 (kaya malaki yung gap between bed and frame ng Strada).

    Uunatin lang ng konti yung brake hard lines sa harapan. Wala nang parts na idadagdag. Yung radiator bubutas ulit ng 1" lower than the original holes to align it. Pwede din naman hindi ibaba yung radiator pero hindi mo magagamit ang fan shroud mo which could lead to overheating.

    I'm not of the guru stage yet, there are lots of things I need to learn more. :D

    What I could do is share the pros and cons of each.

    Actually the 2 coils should have been discounted for, di naman nagtagal yung kabit just for testing purposes lang, hehehe. :mrgreen:

    Pag 20mm body or suspension lift safe ka pa. Hindi gaanong karaming parts ang mapapalitan. Though some minor adjustments are inevitable.

    Djerms, punta ka sa Ride Generation sa Sucat Road and look for Danny-the owner (very approachable). Pa-estimate ka ng body lift. Meron na rin silang ready fuel line and brake line extenders kung kailangan. Meron silang branch sa Alabang motortown.

    Sir Woodfire,
    Maraming salamat po. Saan po ba malapit yang Ride generation? Ang alam ko lang puntahan sa south ay BF homes eh. Hehe.

    Do you think the lift will take more than 1 day? :D

    try to go to the Alabang (Alabang Town Center) Motortown na lang and look for Ride Generation there. Its the row of shops catering to automotive accessories and repairs. look for danny. Good luck with your project. Be sure to have an estimate first before having it modified. :D
