Hello
I love my Montero Sport, but the back suspension bottoms up on speed bumps most times.
The shocks are new, less than a year old. This is a common problem with this truck.
I dont want to raise it one bit.
I was reading a thread and the Airlift came to my attention.
Can I use this only to avoid bottoming up? I mean, fit them inside the springs and inflate just enough to make it harder and not higher?
Tnx!

That's the real problem. Shocks will not help. Shocks are NOT springs. Edward www.4x4extremesports.com |

I would be very interested in a tutorial to install the old man emu springs. Specifically, how and where to make the cuts on the springs. Would you be able to confirm the part # you purchased just for reference? Thanks! $160 seems like a drop in the buck for the benefits you get from the rear suspension.
Also, just to note, I have the Air Lift kit and am overall happy with it for towing, but one down side is that the bags make the rear a little bouncy around turns. I only keep about 5-7 psi at all times.
