Hi Toasty, I will leave it at 33"s for now. It is a daily driver and we don't own a pump station. Beside the 5.2 gears are so damn expensive to buy and install.

I'm in Chiang Mai now - have seen a lot of stock PJ's and one that is either a truck built off of a SWB Gen 1 or a nice job converting (blue) but haven't seen the one in the pic.

There is an active "Jeep" club here but I think it has all models involved using the word Jeep as a "fits all" 4X4 moniker. A lot of snorkel installs but only one muddy one so far.

Seems like a simple couple things to purchase...38's, 40's something big. And a pump station. C'mon. just two purchases. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I am from Singapore and was on a trip with them a few years ago. If you are stopping by Singapore, give me a shout.

Hey Mudraider

That's very funny. Considering fitting some Swampers just for the fun. A garage I patronise has a set. Maybe I will fit them on the next time I am there and pose for pictures.

Hi Recon45

The pitman arms stays a stock. It is an entire bracket with knuckles changed to accommodate the front differential drop down.

Hi MAX1MVS

Here are some pics. Hope they are helpful. it is t he regular mountings like an ARB rack, except I added a rectangular bar to connect the 3 foot pegs for better strength and durability.

Thanks for those pics. It clears things up nicely. That good the steering is not changed. i see you ran wheel spacers. Are those required to run that lift? One cool optition with this kit is a sway bar disconnect when you are on the trail. Did you ever get some inside pics of your pajero? just curious to see wat all difference the interior is compared to the US. Thanks
