    yes ganito rin experience ko sa new fortuner. 6 kami lahat and sa 3rd row pa ako nakaupo. bouncy talaga lalo na sa cemented highway. mahirap din ang egress and ingress sa 3rd row. pang kids lang talaga sa 3rd row. sayang type ko pa naman exterior look but can't tolerate the ride.

    I see I was mentioned here...

    Like Monseratto says, the Fort is much better than the old one, but still too stiff for family duty. I figure the correct approach to this issue will be more progressive shocks plus a change of footwear... perhaps to tires with softer sidewalls.

    Lowering pressure on the stock tires will not help much... if the sidewalls are stiff, all this will do is make the ride bouncier and wear out your tires' shoulders more. Having a more comfortable "premium" tire will give you a smoother ride even at the same 32 psi.

    I don't think there's a need to change anything at the front. It's the rear set-up that has always been the problem for the Fort.

    Be interested to hear what the final solution is.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Kaya matagtag ang mga bago PPvS. Is becusse they're sporting 265/60R18 instead of the usual 265/65R17.

    I've noticed this when riding the Wildtrak (265/60R18) and the Pajero (265/65R17) Matagtag na Pajero Pero grabe ang Wildtrak pag tumama sa Truck lane ng C5.

    So, I guess tiis kayo kayo mga naka 18" rims with PPv body.

    I've notcced that the trailbazer and MuX seem to ride well on visual, maybe because they're using 16 rims with larger tires,

    2016 Fortuner 2.4G yong sa Tita ko kaya 265/65R17 at Zumba edition ang tranny. matigas sya at bouncy gaya ng mga pagka-describe nila sa previous page dito, kaya baka nga talaga suspension upgrade ang best option.

    Hi sir. I have a fortuner 2006 and i changed the front spring with a fortuner 2013 to 2015, the wire diameter is much smaller compare to the stock. Then i also replaced the rear spring with an innova spring since the only difference is that is has smaller diameter of wire. Just add a 2" quicklift sr performance at the rear. I assure you will have a comfotable ride

    OEM shock absorber are the most comportable. Shock replacement for sport/off road purposes are needed but not for daily driven. Making it too soft will compromise the safety ot the vehicle and I dont think you can get aftermarket shock softer than OEM. Most replacement always the same as original or harder. If you try to re-engineering it for your purpose you will fail.

    Dobinsons and toughdog suspensions are popular for a reason.

    Even fox suspension is standard for the ford raptor.

    Consumers cant re-engineer suspensions but they can purchase consumer products that were tested by specialists.

    I think 20k and up for a set of 4 springs. But Stock is right. It is better to get model specific shocks and springs as a set that has been tested by specialists. Fox coilovers are awesome. Have ridden on the Navara application and all I can say is wow. The only negative I could not live with with that type of coilover is the use of spherical bearings. Too noisy for me. ☺

    what about the Rancho RS9000XL? Will its 9-setting adjustable set up help lessen the bounciness of the rear?
    Contemplating to install these Ranchos in the rear muna..
    I see many previous gen Forts sporting Ranchos on their rears & their feedback was, the ride improved a lot. Also, maybe you guys can share the Rancho RS9000XL part # for the rear of the 2016-17 Fort?
    Tnx!
