'91 Pajo, build thread

[Clem]

As far as I've been able to find there are just the BFG AT & MT's and Toyo MT in the 10.5". Hope one of the other more knowledgeable guys will chime in too.

My bad. I read 91 and thought of the Montero which is 1 year different than the Pajero (a 92 Montero = 91 Pajero) so I automatically assumed a Gen I.

Oh, weird. I had no idea. Guess I'll rescind my sales pitch...

Cool hitch, Where did you get that? $?

I got it at a parts store...Its a 8 ton pintle hitch with a ball. Don't know the brand...All I know is it bolts right up to the back of the pajero.

Ok...so the plan is to get some OME suspension components for my truck. Rear coils and rear shocks for sure. As well as a set of front shocks. But what do you guys think of the torsion bars...Could I get away with my stocks one...also...how much can you crank those bad boys up. Ive cranked them up a bit to give the truck a more level look. However I could still go higher as the front end still sits low and the back end will still go higher. Any thoughts?

Stock torsions should be fine as long as you don't have a winch or bumper.

12 rotations on them equals about 1.5" of lift. Thats not too much and makes the truck sit at about stock rake with ome coils. I'd reccommend trimming the droop stops too.

Well then I got a lot more I can torque them too

So an update...just did a big giant road trip...I was so impressed with how the truck performed. While on the road I stopped at a Canadian tire and they had a tire sale. I bent and got 4 Goodyear wrangler MT tires for the price of three with an extra 20%. Plus it was in alberta so I didn't have to pay the tax. Who's the happy camper...This guy

I got home and I found three boxes for me. One was my knock off snorkel from Malaysia, The other my manual locking hubs, and finally the EGR blanking kit. So tomorrow I'm going to be a busy bee and get 'er dun

trying to get new pictures up...any ideas on why its not working
