I'm so excited to finally share with you guys something i've been working on for many months. all the shirts feature a hand drawn picture of my pajero with the words " LEAVE THE ROAD, TAKE THE TRACKS'' I spent many hours designing this. All shirts are hand made at my home i've learnt how to screen print and I screen print all designs at home, they are made from high quality AS Colour material. They come in 4 colours Pine green, Navy, Black and coffee. you may have seen me wearing these in a lot of my recent videos, i've been wearing them nearly every day, this is a limited release so get in quick or your size might be sold out. there is currently only 1 design but i am wanting to expand the line and create more designs so if you have any cool designs you would like to see on a tee let me know down below. if you love the designs and want to purchase one simply type bia4x4.com into google. and I just want to say a big thank you to everyone whos subscribed over the last year i would have never thought i would get to 1000 subs let alone over 1.5K, so thank you so much everyone for the love and support!!!!
So this is an updated walkthrough video, i've been documenting what i've been adding to the pajero for the last year but i thought i would do a walk around part 2. some of my must have mods would be
- Bash plates
- UHF radio
- lift kit
- spotlights
- dual battery
and snorkel
there are hundreds of ways to mod a 4wd but i feel very confident knowing i have a UFH and bash plates with out these 2 items i wouldn't go many places as a lot of the time im out 4wding by myself and i don't want to get in a sticky situation, and since adding a winch i'm a lot more confident going down tracks knowing i have a way out if something goes wrong.
the build is not complete and there as still a lot of things i would like to do to the paj, the next thing on my list is a lift kit and im possibly thinking about a subframe drop but i'm not 100% sold on it yet.

also as mentioned in the video my new extnix head unit i have an install video with all the information i know about it, so if u have any problems and u cant find the solution contact Asad not me as i don't work for the company and i don't know all the trouble shooting stuff, i try to help as much as i can but i get at least 1 message a week.
I'm a big fan of Pajero's and your channel. I really appreciate you taking the time to produce these videos. Along the way I have leant a lot from you, take care.
Thank you so much I really appreciate it ! I'm glad I'm able to help and give people ideas on their pajeros, have a great day😊
Same here as I own a beauty rigg and it’s a Pajero
one month out of warranty, That is a perfectly engineered product.
Yep haha
For shocks & springs, I have had Bilstein/Lovells HD front and back for 10 yrs.
Never had a problem and dives nice 👍
I have "Tough Dog" suspension front and back. 2 years in and no issues. Love the shark dive!
thanks. it was so exciting!
I've just discovered your show and thoroughly enjoyed watching, excellent 👌 thanks for sharing 👍
Always love the updates and walk around explanation. Everyone needs to do an occasional walk around their vehicle and see if anything needs fixing. Always important to get underneath it as well and check from front to rear. Look for any leaks of oils or fluids. After driving dusty conditions get the air blower out and takeoff the rear diff breather hose where it connects to body and blow it out, there will be tones of dust. If it gets blocked it can cause excessive pressure in differential causing seals to leak. Thanks Bia for another great video 🤌👏👏
Thank you I didn't think about looking at the breathers and xhexking for dust, so I'll definitely be doing that some stage soon
I have Old Man Emu (OME) from ARB, my Pajero has done cape York 3 times with this suspension and no probs, was cost effective and you can specify the weight you carry front and rear and they will set it up to suit. I tow a hybrid camper with this car and it travels well and sits level without air bags. Tyres are more difficult because it depends on the terrain you are on, some are better in sand etc, make sure you get light truck tyres as they have better sidewalls and can carry more load, upgrade from the 70’s to 75’s, if your doing a lot of sand get tyres with more tread on the sidewall so when you let the pressure down you get a bigger footprint, this also helps prevent rock damage to the sidewalls.
thank you, yeah im thinking of going from 70 to 75's, i'm just waiting to get a new lift, i don't want to get slightly bigger tyres while my lift is a little sagged, but it's definitely the plan
Great Vid, thanks for making the effort. Love the Shark bit.
Glad you enjoyed it
I’ve got the dobinsons ims lift with Lovells springs, my rears also sagged a bit due to weight since fitting the rtt and custom fridge slide and drawer etc so now I need to change the springs
You may be able to get away with just uprated springs also rather than a new lift.
Though I highly recommend the ims shocks
Sweet Paj its looking good! With the rear sag, you can stick some shims in above the rear springs to level out the body, cheap and easy. I just did mine, had the same issue with full load. Other than the sag, scooping sand, (and high headlights) the rear wheel camber will lean in and chew out the inside of your rear tyres. Re shim sizing, measure from lower spring mount to the top mount, then jack car up from towbar until you reach the target height, The difference in those measurements is the shim size you need. they are about 50 Bucks for 30mm. 30mm (or less) will probably do it. check on e-bay 'pajero rear spacer' - The height difference at the wheel is a multiple of this height change at the spring, so 30mm spacer at spring might be 50mm+ at wheel depending on the distance from spring to wheel. Giddy up!
Wow thanks for all the advice I hadn't heard of shims I'll look into it. Since posting this video tho I've put a new lift in with a larger load rating, tho its very new so at the moment it's not sagged yet, but if I notice it sagging I'll do what you've mentioned thank you again!
Hey Bia, i have had my 2003 np pajero wagon 3.5L v6 petrol since bran new.......have had three different sets of suspension in that time.....20 years..lol....have just put dobinsons MRR 3 way adjustable shocks frount and rear and there springs for a 2 inch lift.....and must say its the best i have since i have had the car....been on for 8 months....i highly recomend it....a bit higher in price then most....but well worth the cost.....and a jack of all trade girl like yourself would have no trouble installing yourself....
Hope that was helpful
Wolf.
Thank you from what I've heard I'm thinking the dobbos will be the best. I've been looking at the adjustable shocks, I'm just hopeing I can find them for the right price.
I had BFG 2 T/A like you did. 1 had multiple cracks & the other had its inside case come loose (Very dangerous)
Have has Nitto Ridge Grapplers for the last 4 yrs.
Absolutely awesome. Only others I can recommend are Mickey Thompson AT3, almost as good, just very noisy.
Hey Bia, well thought out and put together. For the rear bumper, grab the rear bash plate from Boo's Bash Plates. For suspension ive been running kings springs + kyb skorched4 shocks in my 2013 paj. Shocks are reasonable but I probably won't buy them again.2 years with no issues at least.
Scratches are just travel tattoos!
i have thought about the rear bash plate I look online every now and again just waiting for them to go on sale haha i think last time i checked bushskins were about $800 for the one guard which is a bit ridiculous, but ill have a look into boo's bash plates i don't even know if they're still running i've heard they've shut down, thank you
I just put Toyo open country AT+ on my pajero, can't rate them highly enough 🤙🏻
I was between maxxis and yokohama XATs, so glad I went with the yokis. They are a hybrid all terrain\ mud tyre. Off road grip is exceptional and they are really suprisingly well mannered on road too. Regularly you can find a 4 for price of 3 deal with yokohamas.
Lovells extra high HD springs. I also love the adjustable Rancho 9000s for struts/shocks
Nice. Fellow paj owner. Great machines.
Use a door lock circular saw,, drill some 40mm holes in the rear sand scoop.
Have a look at Radar Renegade R/Ts. I bought a set of 5 and they are great offroad (sand, mud) noisy on the road but the change left over in your pocket is louder. A set of 5 won't break the bank. I run a 2in Dobinsons lift.
Haha I do like the sound of money still left in my account, I've been looking at tyres and some of the prices are ridiculous
Bia, that wire hanging down at the 4 minute mark from behind the bullbar needs to be tucked up out of the way save it being hooked on something and ripped out. Just saying. 👍🍺
yeah thanks, i'll get onto it I can be lazy at times haha I cut all the zip ties a few weeks back to arrange some stuff then realized i had ran out of zip ties, and it keeps slipping my mind haha
@@bia4x4I hear ya. No worries. On the suspension I’d recommend the Dobinsons gear. Yes it’s expensive but so are all the prominent brands. Trust me when I say you’ll be so happy you bought quality suspension when you pick the car up and drive back home. I guarantee it. It’ll soon pay for itself on your big lap. 😉🍺
Great video Bia!
Thank you, yeah I 100% would rather spend the money and get the good gear! Fingers crossed the lap comes soon, have a good one🍻
Thank you Asad:)
I have an 80 series coil springs and have airbag man inside the rear coils and have arb kitchen draw system and upright fridge and also tow a caravan when on holidays and the airbags will push the rear end back up to level. Great vid and I run Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac 33” and find them good and quite on the road
Very nice! I do have the airbags but unfortunately both are busted, if I got them fixed it would help with the sagging a lot
Just order your shirts!
Great video, looking forward for next contents
Awesome! Thank you!
If you're wanting a Dobinson's lift kit, chat with the boys at Northlakes Tyre Power as they're an authorised reseller, just had them install a 2" Dobinson's ims lift kit in my 08 ns paj. Super happy with it and it was 2k fitted with a wheel alignment, the kit alone anywhere else would cost you 2k just to purchase, check em out :)
Awesome thanks for that I'll look them us and see what I can get, I did end up buying new front shocks and springs yesterday but I still have to buy the rear
Great video. I love my Pajero.
Great build Bia. Well explained.
Thank you
Honestly for lift kit I would go with dobinson
Sounds like that's the go too that everyone recommends
Hi Bia .Great work on the build. If you can find the BF Goodies that are made in America they last longer than the ones made in Thailand.
Great stuff
Thanks for sharing 👍😀
Nice head unit. Looks great.
12:10Dusks flip and skp😄❤
You will probably notice I also have a rubber duck on my head unit
I liked everything And I am waiting for everything new from you BIA 4X4 for explore Australia Especially with me love pajero ya🚙
Awesome video . I was wondering how you go with the factory rails on the roof. I'm trying to decide whether to upgrade them to a stronger rail system. Cheers
Touch wood I haven't had any problems with them. And the amount of times I've had me and 2 or 3 friends sitting on the roof with me.
Wow, defintely going to buy one of your shirts, good job!
Awesome! Thank you!
Hi, beautiful car and videos. What is the width and the offset of your rims?
Bush Skinz have a rear bumper plate for $637 currently
Oh sweet I'll look into it
Im currently running Kenda RT They're due for replacemnt soon, I'm likely going to get Falken Wildpeaks. They seem like the popular choice on the Pajero facebook pages.
i think wild peaks are my 2nd option I know a few people running them that are quite happy with them
@bia4x4 my mate has them on his work veichle and said they handle the wet better than the BFGs on and off road.
What rack have you put on the roof, was it complete with bars, fixings and flatbed? Looking at doing something similar with my Paj here in the UK. Endgame will be to fit roof tent. I like the wheels! 👌
does this model of pajero have torsion bar
Hey Bia . I can see you have mounted the Rola platform rack on the factory rails.what mounts did you use for it .
rola.com.au/hardware-pack--roof-rack-ss-t-bolts--4-pack/19557-8a5a4325-faff-4b0b-beb4-e96d55bf7b7d/ i used these
Hi Bia, great video as always. As i have similar year/km on mine in stock I am not quite sure if it is worth for me to do upgrades such as bar, winch, lift and bash plates. Would you say it is better to sell and buy something "younger" or do the upgrades on current car? It is fair sum of money to spend on older car.
Yeah I totally understand what your saying sometimes I think should I be spending all this money on my car or should I get a maybe 2015/16 one to upgrade. But, I'm definitely planing on keeping my paj for as long as possible, the prices of the newer ones have gone up a bit and I can justify spending the money while I already have a perfectly working car. I would just recomend buying things 2nd hand and installing them your self if possible. That's why I post the videos I do, everything I'm doing to my car is a first for me and I'm learning and putting it out there for other people wanting to do the same. I've definitely saved a lot of money buying things 2nd hand and installing myself, but obviously it can come with risks, just double check anything you buy 2nd hand before installing.
Sound advice, thank you. Maybe I will spend the current and save for the next gen Paj 😂
How have the maxitrac draws held up? Any annoying rattles or failures?
they've held up well i haven't had any problems and i haven't noticed any rattling, i recommend them over the kings ones, the only thing i would change on them is i with they were about 50mm wider, i think they are slightly skinnier than kings drawers. but all in all i payed $300 for them and ive found they are worth the money
Have you come up with a better solution for keeping them locked down?
Nah still just strapping them down people gave a lot of good ideas in the last video but I feel like strapping them is the most secure way
Here in the US, Pajero's have a bad reputation in terms of reliability, but countries like yours which are like heavily unpopulated are using them without any issues. My cousin is trying to sell his 01 Pajero (montero here) and the price is dirt cheap (price of a 95 corolla) but no one wants it. It runs and drives well. I do not like to end it in a Junk Yard.
That's unfortunate, because as you said they are quite a reliable car here and I don't know anyone where that's ever had major issues with them
Unreliable? Geez mate, I guess those Jeeps are considered reliable in the US?
And Americans think jeeps are reliable ?? Mitsubishi or jeep ?!! No brainer
Yeh it’s a culture thing, we have brands / models over here that people think are trash but are seen and indestructible in other countries.
Is it a diesel engine?
Yes
