what a pajero! love it. did you need to get cable lenghteners for certain engineparts when getting a total 3" lift? i got 33" on my gen 2 paj and want to lift it. thinking of doing a 2" bodylift, but I also want to lift the torsion bars but do not want to have to work on the engine cables
With the suspension lift I had to unbolt the handbrake cables from the trailing arms as they were pulling tight. And with the body lift I had to match up a generic top radiator hose and that’s about it from memory
I have a 3 inch lift like you do and 35's on it do I have to change the panhard rod? It's a bit Shakey and it wiggles slightly sometimes if I reach 60kph and up? What do I do to make my pajero Jr to drive perfectly?
Does it effect the power and pick up of engine? And also does it effect the breaking? Pls do answer, I own a pajero as well and was planning to lift it and go for bigger tyres and rim.
@@PERTHSCOOTER07 thanks a lot for replying bro, I've asked this question to so many others, but none replied, and I wasn't expecting an answer from you so soon.

@@magnumllama400 this actually had 2” body lift. I thought it was 3” as some had 1” factory body lift to clear the bigger gearboxes but that was the 2.8 not the 2.5. I was mistaken
Hi there. I’m not sure. As the Junior was personal import only into Australia there aren’t many parts readily available. I’d say eBay would probably be your best bet.
Hi there. A friend and I drew a picture around a balljoint and then took it to an engineer and said make these!!!! It was very basic. I no longer have the template
No it’s not necessary but will give you even more articulation. If you plan on flipping balljoints you need to use high tensile bolts, use loctite and ensure all mating surfaces are ultra clean.
@@sandrokemashvili3575 I have increase boost using a boost Tee. Check out my video for 4D56 as it’s same principle for 4M40. And the fuel is turned up at the main fuel screw and the boost compensator. Also have videos on this. As long as you run an egt and boost gauge you won’t do damage as you can monitor everything
Ben Castleman hi there. Is yours lwb or swb? The options on springs are less for swb. As far as shocks I use updated Pajero front shocks and updated 4Runner/Surf shocks for the rear
Ben Castleman not used their stuff before. But I know people who have (not Pajeros) and are happy with them. I’m currently using toughdog shocks in my lwb

kalaus m depends what you use it for. A 32" AT is a good all rounder. But if you like the mud a 33" will give you better clearance and a mud tyre will give you better grip. Look at the last video I uploaded to see my 33" extreme mud tyres.
Hi mate I have videos on how to do rear springs and also how to do the torsions bars. This should help you out. I’ll probably do a video on body lift but that won’t be till next year as I will be getting another Pajero then
@@PERTHSCOOTER07 ok too easy, ive seen those vids aha was just wondering if you needed to change any pan hard rods or anything when you went over 2 inches and where you got extended break lines?
@@tylerdeluca7409 ideally you’ll need an adjustable pan hard rod. And the rear brake line and diff breather tube need extending. The brake line can be lengthened by any hydraulic hose company but if you’re tight like me, I have 2x front brake hoses linked from an NL Pajero.
James Milnthorpe bought for $3k and have probably spent $7k on mods. That includes twin locked and Arb winch bar and winch which I got after this video.

Hey Mate, With the 35s what was the overall lift
I had 2” body lift, 2”-3” suspension lift. And 35’s are 4” bigger that the stock tyres (giving 2” lift) so all up I had 6”-7” of lift
With the 3 inch lift mate how did u do the front? Any upgrades or just torsion bar index? Cheers
Flipped and spaced upper balljoints
PERTHSCOOTER07 ok cool no upgraded shocks?
Will Gibbs no. The standard front shocks can cope with the extra travel.
Hey mate I noticed u had 2 frint recovery hooks added was wondering how u put em on cheers mate!
Will Gibbs hi, theyre available on eBay and most 4WD accessory shops. Rated at 4.5 tonnes and bolted straight through the chassis leg.
Nice rig mate were did you get the 4runner extended shocks from or do you have a parts number by any chance cheerse
They were Ultima brand. 355305 or 400305. One part number is for oil filled and one is gassed filled. I had gas ones.
@@PERTHSCOOTER07 did you get extended brake lines

Unfortunately yes it does. It’s the price you pay for huge tyres. This was a weekend warrior so not a big issue to me.

Which size of spacer you use in the upper ball joints ?
They were custom made 15mm
@@PERTHSCOOTER07 thanks !!
Would I need to lift my Paj to get 32’s on her or can I leave her stock and put them on?
32’s will fit no problem. If your front suspension is sagged you may need to wind the torsion bars a little
@@PERTHSCOOTER07 3 inches what lift? Suspension or body lift?

Hi.. Great rig.. I am in the UK and am wondering if I can do a 2" lift on my 2.8 lwb but keep the h/m/s setting
You can. But you’ll have virtually no down travel on the rear. Maybe see about a bolt on shock absorber extender
So jealous!
The 4runner shocks are standard or longer shocks??
Edwin Joel they’re 2” extended. So 4” longer than standard Pajero shocks
How can i communicate with you ??
@@PERTHSCOOTER07 i have a doubt

Did the 33’s fit with the standard suspension?
With the correct offset rims and torsion bars tweaked. Yes

Do you have or can get it a draft of Ball joint spacers?
Hi there. A friend and I drew a picture around a balljoint and then took it to an engineer and said make these!!!! It was very basic. I no longer have the template
hey mate i have a short pajero how do u get 3inch without hitting upper control arms hitting bump stops
You need to mount the upper balljoint on the underside of the arm and use spacers
It’s known as a balljoint flip. I’m sure there will be some info on UA-cam or google.
we did that and still hit@@PERTHSCOOTER07
All this with the standard 2.5tdi engine and gearbox??
damage1_1 yes mate all stock with 350k on the clock.
Hey mate with flipping the ball joints do you haft to put a spacer
No it’s not necessary but will give you even more articulation. If you plan on flipping balljoints you need to use high tensile bolts, use loctite and ensure all mating surfaces are ultra clean.
