Montero Sport ride height problen

**perrydel** · June 21st, 2012 08:54 PM

The rear right side of my MS is higher than the left. does anybody try to correct and solve this problem because according to mitsu SA, nothing they can do about this in MS because the cause is the fuel tank location is on the left side of the car that affect the ride height. But even the fuel is near empty still left side is lower than the right.

Its kind of a normal thing. Some people just get really o.c. about it. Even with the tank empty, its still a heavy chunk of metal.

Grab some poly spring spacers from your local Old Man Emu or Ironman dealer. They sell them starting at 10mm. They are usually used to level out the difference between front ride height and rear ride height but you can also use them to level side to side differences. Try some on the left front spring just to see.

Ganito rin yung dati kong ride, Isuzu Crosswind, pero sa left side naman ang mataas kasi nasa right side ang fuel tank, and it was corrected by adjusting the torsion bars.

yan talaga hirap sa mga matatangkad na ladder frame na suv eh like the this and Fortuner, madali mahalata kung di pantay. kaya mas okey talaga ang crossover

Kung may sakay ka... sa kanan mo pa-upuin, baka nasanay lang yung montero mo na mabigat sa kaliwa palagi.

nasubukan mo i-drive ng may passenger ( balanced), tapos after parking, tsaka mo icheck ang height.

yes, equally weight distribution naman, kahit load lahat nasa right side kasama din bumababa left side. tingnan mo mga MS halos lahat mababa left side, lalo na mga 4X2.
