Hello all,

Does anyone have any info on shock lengths for a j top with the factory hydro lift mechanism, either factory length or good replacement part numbers?

Cheers

They are the same as a normal Pajero, both LWB & SWB. Pull a rear one out, about a 10 minute job.

There is a thread here somewhere with the lengths, called Frank and Ranchos. Its proabably about 5 years ago.

I also did some measuring last year. But can't for the life of me find it.

Really - even with the hydro lift?

The front suspension has upper and lower stops to limit the travel. The factory hydro lift is equivalent to a torsion bar crank - it adjusts where the suspension sits between these stops.

Doesn't offer additional travel.
