Can anyone tell me what the stock ride height is for an L300? Im getting custom leaf springs made, would like 1-2” lift over stock. Mine are pretty worn out so I really have no idea what stock would be.

Also, anyone have a good source of info for the stock leafs? Mostly need to know what the stock arch is. Their source, which said “all Mitsubishi vans” said 5 1/2”. Which doesn’t make sense to me because mine are pretty much flat, if not bending the other way. And 5 1/2” higher from where I’m at seems like a lot.

All Mitsubishi vans... that were sold in the USA I bet. Not including the 4WD, the long wheelbase, flat-floor dually, cab-chassis, or camper van.

The rear suspension workshop manual (http://www.delica.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?f=115&t=18456) says 4WD Mini-Bus rear springs should have an unloaded arch (camber) of 125.5mm (4.94"). Camber is measured from the centre of the eyes like so: In the "Body General" section of the reference library there's this thread, with a dimensional drawing straight out of the workshop manual that shows ride height (among other dimensions): http://www.delica.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?f=99&t=18848

Ok thanks that’ll be super helpful. Anyone know what the arch should be at with the stock leafs installed and loaded? Or anyone with a small lift know the height of their arch?
