I think this would have to be self explanatory, longer shocks for longer suspension extension but shorter compression. But it doesn't necessarily mean you will have more stable ride on longer ones.Originally Posted by boybi

I got it from a fellow officemate who is into off-roading. the specs i specified is for a pajero with a 50mm lift so the extension and compression travel should be matched.Originally Posted by Ungas
as for the durability of bilstein, BMW CARMAG and TOTAL BMW claims that thus far, bilstein (of the Krupp German industrial group) produces the finest and widest array of auto dampers in the world.
i understand that ferman lao of R-Fusion is an official bilstein dealer. he can be reached at Auto_xer*yahoo.com
mga sirs, ask ko lang about suspension upgrades. how did you decide on which one to get? I feel lang it's so hard to try and if you're not satisfied, what happens? parang lagi kasi nasa 'surgery' the beloved ride. and magastos yata. Please enlighten me.:D
fundy::: Trial and error for my case. If you want the more common suspension upgrades there are lots of preset packages for almost every ride available locally like TJM or OME brands. I was almost satisfied with my previous OME light-medium duty suspension setup, kaso tinabihan ako ng mas mataas na Safari kaya gusto ko na rin taasan pa. :mrgreen:
I sold my previous suspension and got a taller coils but this time I made sure I was getting the quality I paid for and grabbed the famous for its high priced Bilstein. Pero hindi pa tapos dun, the front coils were too stiff with extra heavy duties. I had to wait for a few more days for the heavy duty coils to arrive in our country. Got rid of the extra heavy duty by selling it again. :?
marami bang iba't ibang klaseng types ng suspension, for example, ang bilstein? meron bang hard or soft? anong type dapat ang bilhin ko kung gusto ko mabawasan ang tagtag?
Ungas, pwdeng pasabi ke freeman na baka hindi ako makapunta sa shop nya this week? meron kasi akong attend na wedding this sunday, kaya sa sunday na ang punta ko manila. pwde ko ng bayaran muna yung pina-reserve kong steering stabs through his bank account? thanks. :wink:
PS: meron ba si freeman bilstein shocks for GU patrol?

Alam ko iisang klase lang ang stiffness ng Bilstein shock absorbers, I may have to check in this.
Different shock absorber brands have different kind of stiffness. Kung gusto mo talaga ng malambot na shock absorber setting, try ProComp. Balita ko ito ang pinakamalambot and almost same specs ng OE shox.
OT. to pajerokid- some one is looking for a grille like the one you have in your pajero at Kotse.com
ang gusto ko sana yung hindi gaano maramdaman mga lubak or irregularities sa daan. dapat ba dito hard shocks or soft?Originally Posted by Ungas

ARB::: They could get it at SP International Banawe. They could get it checper by ordering directly from AutoPlas UK. :mrgreen:
Mahirap gawin yang gusto mo in just one sitting. Hindi natin alam kung ano ang level ng frimness ng suspension na gusto mo at the same time wala kang mararamdamang lubak? Pag sobrang lambot ang suspension settings ng vehicle, it tends to roll even when just switch lanes. Or worse masyadong maalon ang sasakyan namahihilo naman ang pasahero mo.Originally Posted by boybi
Kung street legal lang, mag hovercraft ka na lang para sure walang lubak, hehehe :mrgreen:
ganun ba? how about yung mga adjustable na shocks? pano ba naaadjust yun?

RS9000 have 5 settings, I think it was 1=street driving to 5=heavy loads. Or the new RSX9000 that has 9 settings, kung gusto mo malaman kung gano ka lambot yung 1st setting try the RS5000 same lang daw ito according to Kent D. (distributor of Rancho)
The knob adjustment is thru the base of the canister located at the base of the shocks. If you want to adjust its settings, you'd have to reach underneath it and turn. However, as complicated as technology seems to find another way by putting remote switches on your dashboard. Same knob for adjusting it underneath only mounted higher. Last I heard it was around 14K for the remote control switch only which was 2 years ago. 8O
have you tried the RS5000? how does it compare with the bilstein? btw, Ungas, na-contact mo na ba si freeman regarding the steering stab? i'm willing to pay for it in advance by depositing it in his account para hindi na sya magalala. pakabit ko nalang pag punta ko manila. tnx.have you tried the RS5000? how does it compare with the bilstein? btw, Ungas, na-contact mo na ba si freeman regarding the steering stab? i'm willing to pay for it in advance by depositing it in his account para hindi na sya magalala. pakabit ko nalang pag punta ko manila. tnx.

Yup, nakakabit po sa Starex van namin yung RS5000 for 2 years na. Lightweight naman kasi ang body frame ng van kaya maganda ang ride, kung Bilstein ang kinabit dito sa van malamang sa matagtag din kahit na independent suspension. Mas mabigat kasi ang body and chassis ng Safari kaya kinakailangan mas matigas ng konti ang shocks na ikakabit ko.
I already passed your intent to Freeman. Baka medyo busy lang siya. Intayin mo na lang post nya dito sa boards.
pareho lang ba shocks ng pajero blister at tonka? kahit na may adjustable shocks ang blister?
