boknoyxtrm,

[garyq]

kimps: hw much kaya palagay ng coil spacers and tbar crank for the trooper?

[kimpOy]

my guesstimate
tbar crank-DIY or 300 pesos
coil spacers- 300 each (tama ba glennster?)

so for 900 pesos may minimum 1.5-2 inch lift ka na.

kasya na 265 or 275/75/16 (31/32 inches)

Sir Kimpoy/Glennster:

Saan ba makakahanap ng coil spacers na ganyan for the Trooper. Looked all over sa Banawe, wala.

Found on 4x4independent.com, but apprehensive about ordering online:

1. 2" Polyurethane spacers - US$119.99
2. Ball joint flip w/ 1/4" spacers & Low profile bump stops COMBO - US$71.99
3. Rear brake-line extender - US$9.99each = US$19.98

Please post if you know where equivalents of these lift parts for the Trooper can be bought here locally.

Thanks.

Para makasiguro, buksan mo ang hood at hanapin mo ang ID plate.

[Ungas]

Try Armark kung meron sila nung poly spacers. Or RATS.

Kung hindi naman 4 inch ang total lift na gagawin mo hindi na kailangan ng brake line extension.

[OTEP]

Kung 2" spacers at mild crank lang, hindi mo na kailangan ng BJ flip at brake line extender.

spacers Php150 each (40mm)
t-bar crank: Php 150 each
Installation ng spacer: Php 600

[OTEP]

Wow! Grabe ang mahal ng instillation ng spacers! hehehehe

I'm gonna crank my t-bars up a bit tomorrow if I have time. Gusto ko lang i-level off ng konti pa.

[garyq]

trup/kimps: kay glennster ito pinagawa? pati parts they can supply.

Sir Trup, where can these things that you've mentioned be found? Address/phone?

I forgot to mention I've already upgraded to OME shocks and coil springs, which lifted the rig by about 1.5 inches. I'm looking for a further 1.5 to 2 inches since I'm considering shifting to 33s. That's why I am also wondering if the brake line extenders and the ball joint flips would also be required for this upgrade to 33s. What do you think bros?

Would appreciate any tip on stores where I can find spacers for this project. Thanks for any help.

CHRONOPHILE>>i got the spacers from a local auto supply here in marikina, i just gave them the size(actually i gave them my caliper w/ the size of the coils).

Eventually, those 1.5" lift will drop to 30mm after all the springs have settled down. Placing spacers to achieve your targeted 50mm lift will compromise ride comfort since the springs will be compressed more than it should have. Why don't you try to fit in a more practical size, like 32" tires? No need to flip the ball joint or extend the brake lines if you don't hit the trails quite often and with 50mm lift, it will still be safe, and will save your more money in the process.
