See you all în the morning 😴

I will be camping at spot 2 I think I'll reach there by 10:30 11:00 see you there guys ..

Hi @Deno Vikram personally i am using the stock suspension with a only a coil lift kit and i am at least once a week in the desert ( 4 hours drives) not including the short runs with friends and family . i am running on this combination a few years so far and would say the Pajero stock shock absorbers are very good. things you must take into consideration when you lift your car is the center of gravity compensation by either installing wheel spacers or changing your wheels to a more -ve offset . as it might be very easy to get a rollover if you lift you car without the center of gravity compensation . Now to the most important question if you should/Must upgrade / lift your car. the straight forward answer is NO! taking into consideration that you are a casual offroader. but if you would like to do it that would be up to you if you like investing and spending your money on the car to look cooler. If you ask me which is more important upgrade to have for offroading Skid plate or Lift kit , i would go with the skid plate .

That's really nice what you have done @Emanuel. By the ways , i think your streeting wheel clock spring is wearing out. 🙄😬

Dear Ghost Busters 👻. @Emanuel, @Rafey Hashmi , @Robk , @Mahesh_ , @Hugo , @Deepak Eswar , @Rk ram , @Tareq Al Turq. I hope you all enjoyed busting ghosts on the drive . Everyone drove well we had only a few refusals along the route. We have driven around 49 Km. the 1st half of the drive was high paced tall dunes bashing followed by the 2nd half technical terrain towards the ghost town. Below is the drive statistics. Looking forward to see soon.
