How to install a lift kit (PART 1) Leaf spring suspension / Dual cab ute / Mitsubishi triton 2 inch
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 жов 2020
- In this video, i explain how i upgraded the leaf springs in my 2006 mitsubishi triton / L200. I'm still in the learning stage of modifying cars and making videos haha so subcribe if you want to follow my build and see the channel grow 😄
The lift kit is from fulcrum suspensions, and it cost me around $1150 supplied. i got 350kg constent load rear leafs and heavy duty front springs to support the bullbar and winch.
There will be a part 2 on how to do the front suspension, coming soon ️🔥
Thanks guys 👌
Thanks for the video mate... Nothing like going into a full lift kit blind to sort out the man from the boys. Cheers
Cheers for watching mate 👌😊 hope it helps
Great video dude, show everything step by step plus all the little "bush mechanic" tricks you used that helped
Thanke mate i appreciate the support 😁
Great video mate. Keen to see the channel grow from here🤙
Cheers mate, new video coming soon called "vic high country with the boys" hahaha one day
Very helpful video
Hanging out for part 2
She's up now 👌
bro loctite and loctite super glue are 2 completely different things! you don’t use super glue on threads homie 🤣
Yeah i realised that after i found thread locker in the bolt section at bunnings 🤣🤣🤣 oh well, shit happens
yeah ya live and learn bro 👍🏼
Good work buddy, appreciate the work involved in the edited too 👍
Thanks for watching mate 👌
Nice video, good quality production 🙂
Thank you very much 😁
Great vid. Just a heads up that it is a good idea to pump the new shockers through their full travel range a few times before installing to prime them.
Thanks for the tip mate, will definitely do this next time around ! 😁
Great work mate !
Cheers mate 👌😁
Hey Josh, really sweet videos. Have u got a video of you disassembling assembling the strut and strut mounts
Hey mate, no i dont. It's do-able with spring compressors but ive heard its sketcky, especially with HD springs. Your best bet is to take your old strut assembly and your new strut and spring down to any suspension shop. I think they charge me like $40 to do it for me
Great vid mate very helpful 🤙
You need to use copper slip on your bolts to stop them seizing up
Which bolts do u recon?
FYI. They recommend silicone based grease rather then the moly/lithium grease you use. Silicone grease won't react with the bushes 9ver time.
Great video bro
Really made that look easy
Thanks for watching 😊
Can't find anything higher than 2" that fits the new teitons, guess I'll have to buy a ranger.
Nice mate. Definetly gonna be using this video when I get the chance to do mine
Cheers mate i hope it helps 👌
Bruh can you get that front springs part 2 out ASAP please!!!
Hahahaha ill do my best, been busy with work haha
@@joshsparkman2060 have you got it filmed?
@@MattsBookPro sure do, it takes me soooo long to edit it tho because im new to it 🤣
Up now 👌
Nice work! Where is part 2?
Out now 😁
Awesome dude gotta link for that kit mate? Mines a ML 2007 model same kit yeah?
I actually didnt buy it online, i went into the fulcrum store and told them what i wanted. And paid in store
you like the fulcrum ive been thinking about getting it
Its been on the rig for a month or 2 now, and i cant knock it mate. Cheap as compared to the other brands, and pretty good quality i recon
@@joshsparkman2060 how long did it take to receive your kit, im on week 2
Do you need to have a new control arm ? Or can u still use the old one? I’ve got a 4inch lift kit
Hi, does newer model L200 2017 has leaf spring also?
Hi did the rear springs actually lift it 2 inches as the springs you have say they are a 20mm lift?
Did the rear of the leafs have steel bushings like the front did? Or just the polyurethane bushings?
Im not 100% sure, i think just rubber
Where is part 2 of the video for the front shocks install???
Just uploaded it 😁
Was it any good with the 2” front spacers and the extended rear shackles that you had on prior to the full kit you just installed?
I highly recommend not wasting money on spacers and extended shackles. That kit cost me $220 and it was a rubbish stiff ride! It did lift my car up, but geez it was crap. This fulcrum full 2 inch lift kit cost $1150. I recommend getting the proper kit mate
Josh Sparkman thanks for the reply, iv had the spacers and shackles for a while but been up and down on weather to put them in for the time being and getting a proper kit later on, would they be ok just for daily road driving as I don’t go off road much if any at all, or would you still not recommend it?
For day to day use on road, yeah its fine. Even as a tradie, it'll be fine i recon. I had it for 1 year and im a chippy. Just really really stiff when i loaded up alot of weight. And expect your leaf springs to be flat. But yeah should be fine mate
Josh Sparkman no worries, thanks for the input, did you have the 32mm spacers on the front or 25mm, also iv read some tritons get tailshaft vibrations did you get this at all with the mig extended shackles
@@joshsparkman2060 Hey Josh, I'm in the process of looking for the same kit, on the fulcrum website and every other place i can find, its around 1500 bucks for the version you got, where did you find it for 1150? Cheers man!
Do you have a body lift installed too?
Nah not yet mate. I want to do 1 inch body lift
Is your's a manual or auto?
I just stumbled across this. And thought , I know that guy!
Josh and his blue money pit on wheels! HaHaHa!!!
That Triton will send you broke Josh.
It will almost be a new vehicle by the time you finish, perfect, except its not a diesel.
Buy a bloody new Ute ...[tight ass]. you can afford it. Great vid though, well done.
Hahaha how do u know me? And yeah i ended up selling the petrol and got a diesel
Can I just install front and rear shocks without replacing the springs and leaf springs sorry I'm trying to save me some money 😁
The springs carry the load, the shocks control the spring behaviour. So short answer not really
@@waynasfamilyadventures147 are you based in Perth? What brand shocks springs and leaf springs would have recommend for a 2014mn Triton I don't want a lift just standard height as is now.
I think its best to just get a entire new suspension all together. Did u end up sorting your issue? Haha 8 months later 😅
@@joshsparkman2060 hi Josh they said is the new tyres on the rear end, you're right might as well get a whole new standard suspension😁
Well i definitely rate the fulcrum gear and theyre affordable compared to others man
That's a crow, not a magpie. Good video though
Awesome video did you have to do a wheel alignment?
Yeah 100% definitely needed. But wheel alignment was free with the fulcrum lift kit
@@joshsparkman2060 how much did the kit cost you I'm looking to get one for my 2014 Triton I've noticed the other day at 100kms an hour left hand front feels like is bouncing I had two New rear tyres put on a month ago not sure if is a suspension or tyre balance problem.
@@pa1264 my kit set me back $1.2k
And i highly recommended taking it to a tyre place and getting them to suss it out. It might be an egg on your tyre
@@joshsparkman2060 ok thanks Josh.
I gotta ask, did you have any driveline vibration after your lift?
If you have a manual you'll need a spacer or get a tailshaft made up. Autos have a slip joint so they don't get vibration
I got a manual and have slight shudder on 1st gear.im trying to work it out now .
When will you upload part 2?
Hopfully in a week or 2, just been super busy
Just uploaded it 😁
Hey mate, what size tyres you running
