Pajero Gen1 Lifted 50mm

[Cruisn]

Well I got my lift installed today, 50mm toughdog kit.

50mm medium duty springs - good for 300kgs of weight in the rear.
41mm foam cell shocks on all corners

It started off great installing springs and shocks in the rear....

then it took a turn for the worst, I get underneath to crank up the torsion bars and find that 1 side is already cranked to the max... but no achieving anylift..

Run to the wreckers and get a spare for 110. auz dollars

start installing new bar.... removing the front bolts caused them to all strip..

Walk to bolt shop in blazing heat with no clouds in the sky..

get 2 dollar bolt and return. finish lift.
45mm front lift so far, will turn it up another 10mm max to level it out a bit
the rear is at 70mm lift right now till it settles. I am very happy with it.

The rear:

And then I noticed....

Junk bar.. could be used as a beating stick or extra long paper weight

All done, with exception of settling and 10mm front raise to go.

I guess a compare photo is needed, although its hard to tell the front is even lifted.

Fixed the front end lift issue, got it as level as I can safely do with torsion bar fronts. the back should sag about 10mm still.

Looks good, I always liked the first gens.
