Dual Piston Brake Upgrade + Suspension Refreshment

Post by MrDuncon »

Fortunatelly i had done one of the most important thing on my Deli, the brake upgrade.
The original calippers were not swim from left-to right (sorry for the english 8-) )

And after we get the torsion bar out we cant move the upper arms.. so we had to change the whole front suspension :-(
they were as rusty as a 100years sea-wreck:

Front brakes came from a III. gen. Pajero. From a 3.5 V6 GDI version.
Because of the bigger brake sys, we use new brake lines which can't slack, and longer cos the lift.

We installed the costume lifting block, wich allows you the greasing.

We used original mitsubishi parts:

And new shock absorbers:

Finally:

Half of the Front brake line:

Rear brake line:

Hardest part of the job: to get the original, rusted parts out.
The trickiest one: to adjust the wheel bearings.
Result: The suspension has got the factory values with the lift. The brakes are incredibly strong.

Sorry but i dont have pictures about the process, but if you have any question, feel free to ask, i will try to answer :-)

That's close but not quite. Google translate just never gets it right as they use english as the base.
