Hi Doc Boz!

Total cost including modification and installation is 38K. Yung sa front po is actually Rancho shock for stock height but since gusto ko i-maintain yung lifted height sa front nilagyan ng extension rod na 1" between yung eye ng shock at body thru welding then piniturahan ng silver. Using the shock intended for stock height will bring down my lifted front down to stock height. Meron din po Rancho shock for the rear na para sa stock height. Yung ginamit na rear shock para sa strada ko is yung mas mahabang shock for the new hilux to match the lifted rear of my strada. Minodify lang yung rubber bushing sa eye kasi mas maliit ang butas ng rubber para sa Strada so nilagyan nila ng metal sleeve yung butas ng bushing to make the hole smaller.

Has anyone tried installing OldManEmu's shocks? There suppose to give a better ride to the vehicle without compromising performance. Any thoughts guys?

yes, oldman emu gamit ko sa front, so better than stock, my worries are gone... yun kasi ang recommended ng friend ko rather than belstein.

sa rear, im using rancho 5100, mas matigas raw ang 9000 model...
and nilagyan ko ng konteng pabigat sa bed... hehehehehe

Doc Boz, kung may leak nga, di ba covered pa yan ng warranty?

Hi ,sa Iloilo po ako.gusto ko po sanang mag pabili ng rancho shocks sa utol ko sa states kaso lng walang application guide for 2003 strada.Tulong nman po.. Maybe part number of rs 5000 or rs 9000x or rsx.

[G01]

I asked the owner of the shop who installed my Rancho shocks for the part numbers for the new Strada but I left the country before I was able to receive a text from him about the numbers. I will make a follow-up on the part numbers for the stock height once I get back end of this week. Will also ask about the Rancho shock part numbers for the Strada 2003.

[jrmislang]

Thank you so much sir..This forum is a great help for strada owners..I'll keep in touch for the part numbers.Thanks again
