Sir TP, ganda talaga kaya Mickey Thompson ang pinili ko. Binigyan pa ako ng discount ng Auto Options kasi member ako ng Strada Club
.
Thank you doc Boz. Gumanda ang tindig after installing the lift kit. 3" sa front and 2" sa rear. Got the lift kit from bro Dadz.
I will be available this May for the Pinatubo Trip. Let's plan it out para mas marami tayo. Sir DonT I think will be back next month pati rin yata si bro Dadz.

Nice one bro GO1 okay ang mickeys kaso to much for me masyadong mahal hehehehehehehe any way o hope you have a good time trailing.
Tama si bro TP, sir Sael, grind mo na yang stock HT tires mo.
Jeff Offroad shop fitted these wheel combo after they installed the lift kit. It looks really nice but I still prefer the MT tires. If someone's interested I can PM you details regarding these tire and wheel combo. Jeff Offroad is the official distributor of Nitto Tires here.

Hi everyone!
Just got back from an intense 4-day, 1200km road trip around Ilocos, through Vigan, Batac, Laoag, Pagudpud and some other towns in between.
Let me share with you some pics from the sites we visited! Enjoy!

Hi G01!
Nice lift on your truck! Just would like to know if you can give me more details about the lift kit you installed? Specifically, what parts were included with the kit (springs, shackles, brand,etc.)?
Also, nice new wheels/tires you tried on. Are those 22" rims?? Lastly, I'm curious to know why the shop used Dune Grapplers, considering the dominant type of terrain we have here. Wonder how they perform on road, or even on dirt/mud trails.
Thanks!
Nice pics from your Ilocos trip, sir Hockenheim! I was at Laoag yesterday and I saw a black Strada with bash plate same as mine. It doesn't have a TSCP sticker so I was wondering where the owner got the bash plate. I also noticed in your pics that you have the same bash plate. Could it be you who I saw at Laoag yesterday? I went to the China Embassy at Laoag to process my application for a China Visa.
Sir G01, si sir hockenheim nga yung nakita mo, I'm sure. Kay dadz din nya nakuha yung bash plates, kaya pare-pareho tayo, hehe.![]()
Di bale, malapit nang magka-sticker ng TSCP yan, di ba, sir hockenheim?![]()
The lift kit is from bro Dadz who lives in Thailand. The kit consists of 2 pcs. Longer “A” arms, 1 pc. front differential lowering bracket, 2 pcs. front CV shaft lowering brackets, 2 pcs. 2” rear leaf spring lift blocks, and 2 sets of longer U-bolts with washers and nuts for the leaf springs.
The lift kit has to be paired with longer front shocks which bro Dadz also sells. Even the rear has to be replaced with longer shocks to compensate for the added height. The brand name of the shocks from bro Dadz is Amada.
Yes, those are 22” rims. I saw a lot of vehicles using Dune Grapplers here which were bought from Jeff. Just today I saw a 4x4 Hilux with DG tires. I think DG is equivalent to AT tires but more at home on sand and dirt. I like how the flame thread pattern matches the curves of the Strada. If I am not into offroading most of the time I would really consider using these tires for my Strada.
Hi sir G01!
very nice pics indeed!
lalong naging matcho yung truck nyo when you changed into MT's
sir ask ko lang po...would those 22's fit even if you don't have the 3 inch lift?
thanks sir!
