    Suspension upgrade in Perth

    Hi everyone.

    I am starting the process of upgrading my Pajero's suspension. If there's anyone on here from Perth, can you give me a steer with any recommendations for good installers in the region.

    Cheers

          I used ARB to do an Old Man Emu 2" lift in 2016 - had issues with it sagging on the one side shortly after install - they replaced under warranty - all good for a couple of years but noticed it's sagging again

          Now that it's out of warranty ... yay ... I'll have to redo them sometime soon - won't be going back to ARB for that though.

          Sorry mate, not sure who else to recommend so watching this thread with interest.

          Cheers,

            Hi, mate, I am tossing the coin between ARB and Bilstein. Do you reckon it is worth taking bilstein over ARB?

                pretty much the same I guess.

                my friend went for ARB by $2100+

                Bushskinz sells the kit for 1800+, I reckon fitting would be around $300-400$.

                    I did a little research on this myself last year, haven't got around to it yet but a couple of companies that seemed to have good feedback were Malaga Suspensions and Wilkinson Suspensions.

                    I went in and saw the guys at Malaga and they were very knowledgeable, just did a phone quote with Wilkinsons but they seemed to mirror what Malaga had said.

                    Price between the two was marginal, around $2350. That was for Bilsteins, Kings springs and airbags, full alignment etc.

                    Have heard good things about Warrens tyres and brakes in Morley also but that was when I was trying to get the camper looked at.

                      Any update on your suspension Pistol_Pete? Fitting etc. Feedback on company who did your job, if it is complete that is?

                      Cheers

                        Hi Folks.

                        The update is that there is no update as yet.

                        We are tossing around the idea of getting a camper trailer, which may have a bearing on our suspension requirements. So we are on hold for the moment.

                          HI there,
                          same boat here, waiting for OL bullbar to be fitted than it will be suspension upgrade.
                          I think I am going to fit dobinsons shocks and king springs but malaga suspensions only do dobinsons kings apparently.
                          Autoride in balcatta (recommended by many users) seems to have closed down, I will try Wa suspension or that Barry guy in myaree.
                          Unless there are other recommendations here

                            Hi all, first time poster here. Just bought my first Paj and have 6k burning a hole in my pocket to spend on it. Went to see Barry in Myaree today. He recommended Tough dog shocks with King spring 2" lift combo for my NW at $1800. Anyone know much about or have this set-up on thier wagon?. Im very keen on Bilsteins due to my trawling through these threads though. I know nothing other that what I've read but all the information on here is much appreciated. If I'm going to spend $1800 on tough dog King spring combo...seems I may as well go the extra $300 odd for the most highly recommended billys and lovell combo.
