Lift me up!

[OTEP]

Today, I had my rear coil spring spacer and t-bar crank installed over at GlennSter's shop in Kamias.

I also had some maintenance work done on my Pajero. These included:
*Change oil (Shell Rimula X) and filter (ViC)
*Change air filter (yung pang Isuzu ulit)
*Change fuel filter (ViC)
*Change coolant (Castrol)
*Change rear brake pads
*Tire rotation

Suspension work done:
*Install .25" wheel spacers in front.
*Crank torsion bars
*Install rear coil spring spacer
*Front upper bumpstops shortened to improve downward suspension travel

I would like to thank everyone at G&S Auto Supply for their service and accomodation. Here are some pics:

NEW FILTERS (ume-extra yung old air fiter):


SPACER AND MY HAND:


Btw, I also need some new front differential supports. Bad bushings na daw sabi ng mechanic ni Glenn. My rear shock bushings and rear stabilizer bushings don't look so well, too.

[Olive Drab]

[Djerms]

Tinganggal mo yung cone sa spacers or talagang ganyan na yan? Yung sakin kasi may cone pa underneath for extra support yata...

[belcher]

Otep, kamusta ride comfort after installing the spacers?

[Jeepcruizerph]

chick mobile :D

Sir Sheep,
The lowest portion of the door is now above my knee. The lowest portion of bodywork (a metal lip under the doors) is now ~17" off the ground. I'm guessing around 1.5" - 2" ang lift. Anyways, I will compare it to my dad's stock Montero later.

Boss garyq,
#92 Kamias St. sina GlennSter. Near the corner of Kalayaan. You can call Ronald (GlennSter's cousin) at 9218831 if you need more info. The spacers cost less than Php 200.00/ea. sa kanila (mas mahal sa mga Servitek). You cannot add spacers to the front. The only thing you can do is crank the torsion bars (which can be done at the shop). Just don't forget to trim the bumpstops which control wheel drop, to preserve ride quality. Yung labor cost hindi ko po alam kasi I also had lots of other stuff done in the same day.

PROMDIBOY, Belcher,
The ride is stiffer sa harap. But not significantly. The rear ride is practically the same. The spacers should have added a cushioning effect but I think this was offset by my use of mud tires.

Djerms,
Ganyan talaga ang spacers. Kahit sa U.S. ganyan din ang gamit nila although black ang spacers nila.

Olive,
Hehehehe, wish ko din yan.

[kimpOy]

eh OTEP, ilan inches ang t-bar crank?

hindi ba na crank na dati yan?

mas mahaba ba ang tbar ng paj, kesa sa strada?

nakasagad na sa akin pero kulang pa.

[garyq]

tnx otep.

[OTEP]

Kim,

Virgin pa ang t-bars ko. hehehehe. Kahapon lang nag-crank. Wala naman sa haba ng t-bars iyan. The length of our A-arms determines suspension stroke. Pareho lang ang Strada at Pajero (plus/minus a few details).

Medyo sagad nga. Kaya binawasan yung drop bumpstop to compensate. Mahal kasi kung bibili pa ng low profile bumpstop. I had it cut to 1/2 its original length. Kaso nabasa ko sa 4x4wire na kahit 1/3 the original length pwede pa. Baka gawin kong weekend project. Time to bring out the jigsaw! hehehehe. Apat kasi ang drop bumpstops ng Pajero.

sir Otep,

nakapag lift na ba cla ng Adventure SS ?

mag eexpire yung warranty nung akin this march e balak ko sanang e lift kahit 1 inch lang para makapaglagay ako ng malaki laking gulong .....

[OTEP]

Pwede naman i-lift ang Adventure. Same procedure as L200. Cone type spacers ata sa harap. Sa likod longer shackle o kaya lift block. Pero tawag muna to make sure they have parts.

Ang naglilimit ata sa laki ng gulong na pwede sa Adventure ay yung size ng wheel wells.
