    How does this new setup improve the suspension performance of the New Isuzu Crosswind? Would it be possible to replicate on other AUVs?

    Shocks look stock... Could possibly be different rating/thickness on the leaf spring layers.

    Nilipat nila yung shock mounting ng isa sa bandang harap ng diff. Pwede rin naman gawin ito sa trusty welding shop. But you'll need to be sure there's an existing crossmember to weld on.

    Probably the leaf springs had different spring rate and all add up to marketing hype.

    pag sinisilip ko ilalim ng 2004 crosswind, halos parehos lang sya sa revo.. yung the way na nakapwesto yung shock absorber (bias mounted) is the same as the revo..

    probably yung spring rate lang ng leaf springs ang nabago sa sportivo..

    pero let's wait for other crosswind owners here

    The shox are installed in such a way to prevent axle wrap. Typically this setup is use with leaf springs suspension.

    I dont see anything different from the pix itself. Siguro yung reversed spring setup. usually AUVs have standard leaf springs.

    para sa akin mas malambot na ang ride ng crosswind kesa sa old hilander series. this was before the upgraded suspension setup.

    Is there an OEM for REVO? Do you think it will improve the ride? Advise please.
