Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I've had my Paj (Stock NH GLS LWB) now for 2 weeks, and i must say it's a fair bit nicer (In every aspect) than my old FJ45 Ute, rear diff lock is sweet. I have been reading on this board about winding up the torsion bars to gain some more ride height, all i want to do is lift up the front a bit so it sits level.

Currently the back sits higher than the front, which i guess is to allow for 5 passengers in th back. But i have not yet been able to find some specifics on how to do it. If someone could point me to a web site or reply with some instructions, it would be much appreciated.

I've already pulled my friends Hilux out of the mud once from around the back of an industrial estate in Hallam, but he still has the better approach angle, which is why i am posting this message.

I will have to take the Paj up to Gembrook soon, to see how it really goes compared to my old 4x4 and also compared to my friends Hilux.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

Pajeros.. four wheel driving in comfort.

P.S. - I seem to get around 16 litres per 100Km city driving and about 12.5 in the country. Does this sound about right from the 3 litre engine?

Welcome to the board.

is a detailed write up on how to crank the torsion bars there are some other useful mod articles in there as well.
You can also trim down your upper bumpstops (x4) to make even more room for the lift. Mine have been cut down to 8mm (from 25mm) and allen key hex bolts used for a flush fit instead of the factory bolts.
Your fuel economy figures seem about right for a 3.0 V6 lwb.
I live in Berwick so if you need a hand just ask.

Well I know a little about these Mitsu things but the real guru's who have been tinkering with these things for many years don't tend to post here that much unfortunately
