Suspension Lifts

[OTEP]

DSM619,

Hindi ata papasok ang 33" with the stock suspension. Pero kung sa 32" tataas na din siya.

20 degrees is more than enough for road use. Most cars have an apporach angle less than that.

Gen II Pajero pa din po dito sa Pilipinas. GEN III na yata iyang sa inyo.

[DSM619]

ok tnx , check ko na lang availability sa size na maganda at kasya , di ko pa kasi na post pics eh . di pa ako naka baba sa barko .

[Litespeed]

Whatever you decide. Pls, DO NOT do like what this idiot did. :lol: :lol:

[pajerokid]

dsm619::: dude, those numbers are more or less irrelevant sa on road use coz more or less flat yung surface :D

lite::: nice one :D :D :D Photoshop!

[Litespeed]

Pajerokid

Unfortunately, that one was not photshopped. It actually happened and it was in the news few months ago.

[Ungas]

pajerokid::: I did though of putting rubber pads sa ibabaw ng coil springs, may nagsabi sa akin baka daw ito matanggal if I use it on offroading pag sumobra ang extension ng springs.

Suspension upgrade for now, then aluminum bumpers with winch is my next target. :D

Oo nga pala, before I forget all coil springs ang suspension ng safari.

With regards dun sa angles, di ko pa nasusukat neither nababasa sa manual, hehehe.

[pajerokid]

lite::: ok. wow ang tiyaga nun! :mrgreen:

ungas::: o nga no! thats quite possible.

[Ungas]

Litespeed::: Departure angle nyan mukhang zero (0) na, hehehe. Buti di nagputukan mga tires nun?

[pajerokid]

ungas:: ..... on the subject of spring pads, if you extend the springs too much, eh di may possibility na matanggal na rin yung springs mismo diba :?: so i guess medyo ok pa rin to use the pads but kelangan siguro ingat lang :mrgreen:

[Freeman]

otep::: nice info! :D

dsm619::: ok or not depends on you and the terrain you traverse. The angles are there to guide you as to what your suv can or can not achieve. :D This is the reason why Pajeros, LC's and Patrols have Inclinometers. Para malaman mo kung kaya o hindi :D

You'll get the reading on the inclinometer when you're on the hill. Getting up a steep hill with a poor approach angle will not be warned by your instruments, you'll probably hear the scraping sound or "thud" before you get the reading.

Hey, get down from the vehicle right before the attempt. Assess, then
decide.

---------

Suspension lifts are mostly decided by the tire size you want.

33" on a Patrol will make it streetable and light to moderate offroad capable. A 2" lift is enough to fit these donuts.

However, the Patrol can possibly go to 35 or 36 inch tire diameters. That is because of the availability of aftermarket suspensions up to 8" lift and lower r & P / t case gears.

Boss Freeman,

I'm too excited to get my suspension upgraded, :shock: is there any chance that I could have it done within this week or next week? :D

[Ungas]

ungas::: pare cant wait to see your new improved Patrol! 8) Honestly, Once your three angles improve baka maging LC killer na yan! :twisted: Among the three angles, mukhang weak ang Patrol sa Rampbreakover angle. Meron ka bang actual figure nito based on the Manual? I Just want to compare notes :D Sa Pajero V44 kasi approach = 42deg, Departure = 27deg, rampbreakover = 24.5deg


(wag na sana may humirit ng Patrol vs LC vs Pajero! my 2 cents lang po yan)

___________________________________

Here it is the Patrol's approach x departure x ramp break over angles = 37 x 27 x 31 degrees, wala pong halong daya, kinopya ko lang from my trusty magazine. :D (hirap hanapin lumang model na kasi tong patrol ko, I had to search back last 4 years, hehehe)

[kimpOy]

ako din gusto ko itaas yung strada ko

ok na ako sa 31x10.5xR15

right now naka 255/70/15 with 15x8 na mags

pasok naman may konting sabit sa front fender and bumigat steering

baka pede na yung torsion bar tapos sa front tapos change shackles sa likod?

[pajerokid]

ungas::: ok naman pla specs ng Patrol :D Kasi sa itsura parang ang haba masyado e :D

kimps::: You got new tires na? congrats! :D pwedeng pwede ang binabalak mo. Get Old Man Emu Springs sa likod :D

[kimpOy]

PK wala pa nasa drawing board pa lahat!

so ok na yan crank the torsion bar then change shackles sa likod
ok lang ba yung hindi na ako mag change ng shocks?

wala naman problem sa likod kaso kapag nag crank ako ng torsion bar, eh ka level na ang likod pang nag load ako sa bed masagwa naka tingala sa langit strada ko

eh kung di na ako mag change ng springs? shackles na lang?
eh kung di na ako mag change ng shackles? springs na lang?

[Ungas]

ungas::: ok naman pla specs ng Patrol :D Kasi sa itsura parang ang haba masyado e :D

pajerokid::: sir, medyo napansin ko nga parang mababa tignan because of its bubble top and lower driver's view. If you will notice kaya mataas ang break over angle ng safari, intact ang under parts nito from the chassis. :D

ako din gusto ko itaas yung strada ko

kimpOy::: pwede naman po ma-achieve yung binabalak nyo cranking the torsion bar if the suspension bumps permit, pag 1-2 inch height kaya pa po kahit stock shocks ang gamitin. Mas makakaganda ng porma if you would raise it equally front and rear. Para po di naka tingala yung ride nyo. :D

[pajerokid]

kim::: tanong ko k mike. wala akong experience sa leaf springs e :|

[Ungas]

( Pahabol ) With regards sa leaf springs, madaming options pwedeng gawin to achieve its ideal lift. :D

Pwedeng shackles ang palitan, leaf spring spacers pag leaf over differential ang setting, or change the OEM leaf springs for an aftermarket ones. :D

[kimpOy]

please sir thanks in advance

kasi last night may nakasabay ako sa petron meycauyan naka GEN I strada din kaso naka 31s siya medyo pasimple lang ako tumabi sa kanya!

yung mags ko dati is 15x7 ngayon 15x8 na medyo bumaba yung ratio ng sidewall ko kaya bumama din height ng strada ko!

[Ungas]

Kung kasya 32 sa ride mo, wanna get mine? :mrgreen:

6 tires Dunlop Grandtrek AT1 32x11.5x15
yung 2 tires bagong bago kapapalit ko lang last week. Balak ko kasi kunin yung Baja ni Glenn10 :mrgreen:
