LWB Safari Springs in '88 SWB

Hey guys have had a look around but cant find enough info on the subject. The LWB is heavier so i figured the springs would be a cheap lift for a SWB? am only wanting 2" at the most to run 33's and want to stay away from a body lift (maybe 1" if needed)

Any help would be great, Cheers

Ryan

Re: What to buy?

Ive found my Pajero pretty cheap to do work on. Few DIY jobs here and there, being on a budget etc. Check out my build page of my Paj.

Re: Fergs new Pajero Shorty

steel into the chassis rails is 50x50 box section, 5 mm thick. it slides 270mm into the rails and i packed the chassis rails with steel plate to stop the small amount of movement that was there.

Re: Fergs new Pajero Shorty

I have thick box section that is pushed right back into the chassis rails with bolts holding it in place, Pajero rails stick way out infront of the truck which looks ugly and gives a bad entry angle. But i didnt want to sacrifice strength by cutting the rails back. Also i wanted the winch as high as ...

Re: Fergs new Pajero Shorty

Awesome cheers for the help, could you explain why the front diff would need changing too? I figure that if i was to use 4x4 on the road, it wouldnt take long to break my transfer case / gearbox or whatever. But using 4x4 in the mud just means the wheels would spin at different speeds? and the mud ...

Maratoto Track Summer 2010/2011

Went up to the gate at Maratoto on the weekend but it was closed. Had a chat to one of the locals who thinks it usually opens Labour Weekend.
Is DOC in charge of this?
How can i find out when they plan to open it?
Would be keen to help out in a Working bee for the track

Cheers.
