hi, gen2 pajero have done 40mm body lift, but now looking at 40mm fuel tank lift, has any done, as the left side looks a bit tricky?

Easiest way is to cut the chassis behind the panhard mount, take the rear body lift block out and lift the chassis 40mm taking the tank with it, and welding the chassis back together. This way you bumper gets lifted as well.

he was refuring to lifting the chassis so you dont need to get a custom one made. seen it on a few pajs around here and works a treat. if i was leaving my bodylift in i wound be doing it too. theres no altering of suspension mounting points so its not that hard to cert either.

For someone like yourself, I am from the planet known as Earth. Sits betwen Venus and Mars. Orbited by one Moon, called 'The Moon'. The planet orbits the sun, which with gravity and rotation creates the phenominan known as Day, Night and years.

An added bonus is the light our sun provides, so we can get under our Pajero's, open our eyes and have a look as to what I meant. It is by far the easiest mod, lifts the tank, chassis rails, bumpers and all. Only extra mod is moving the tabs where the front of the tank mounts to on the crossmember between spring perches.

Now, go back to Mars, :mrgreen: .
