Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I think about upgrade IFS in ma Pajero Gen2 SWB. So i'm looking for something like:



Looks good in my opinion, but i have no idea where i can get custom a-arms(like on the picture).

Any ideas?

Hmmm, they have obviously done away with the Torsion bars.

I guess - what is the reason for the upgrade? If it is for on road then the coilovers would be nice but for off road the same money would probably just about get a Solid axle swap as there has been quite a bit of engineering go into that vehicle - still confined to the limits of IFS off road.

Anything is possible! and when you do - pics

But i'm looking for IFS upgrade for Gen2.

Ha! There's a nice photo in there of the paj launching off the ground with the wheels like this / \ (as in both pointing to the opposite side of the car)

something like this....

Looks good!! Twin coilovers!!

Having the coilover on the top wishbone would restrict shock length but they seem to make it fit under the bonnet/guards.

I dont understand why there is the additional pivot on the lower arm? any ideas?

I doubt this is a bolt on kit from anywhere, lots of custom fabricated mounts to make it all work.

Thanks for the link, lots of nice fab pics, and more ideas to add to the pot!![/url]

It's handmade front suspension for MMC Delica from Vladivostok (Russia). Smth like you want to your Paj but with torsion bar.

The joint they are using looks to have a cast "shank" on it, so I guess it is less of a pivot and more just "bolted on" also gives some allowance to realign the suspension if something does get a bit tweaked.

You just got caught in a grave-dig...

I have seen a different set up with custom chromoly tube arms and coilover shocks mounted on the bottom arm. See http://chapmansoffroad.com/NL%20Pajero.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. If you are not going to do offroad racing that amount of modification/fabrication is not needed. A good quality single shock can work really well or there are much easier modifications that can be done without messing with the car too much.

Here is a picture of twin shock mounts on the front of my gen 2 pajero. Camera phone is a bit dodgy but you get the idea. It is a standard pajero upper and lower shock mount (can use leaf sprung hilux upper, jackaroo upper or just fabricate some), little bit of inner guard trimming needed to fit it in. Just have to make sure everything is square and shocks travel on the same plane. Lower arm has been extended back to accept lower mount. Makes a big difference to handling offroad (by that I mean offroad racing), wouldn't advise it for 4wdriving depending on they type of shock you use it makes the ride very stiff and it doesn't help get you places like a SAS conversion will.


Below is a shot of the rear shock setup I run, they are two and a half inch Radflo remote canister shocks and two inch hydraulic bump stops. Again great for offroad racing but really rough for normal driving/4wdriving.
