Shocks - Coil/Leaf

Post by n_dorphin »

Hey Guys,

Does a 89 SWB Pajero import with rear coil springs use the same springs as Aussie leaf spring model?

Thanks

I dont think so.
Leaf have bias mounted eye to eye mounted shocks.
Coil type use the same as later model coil type, eye bottom, pin top mounts and both sides are mounted in axle and lean forward at the top.
