Hi Guys

Recently got my SWB Gen2 2.8D running and require some advice please.
1.Wanting to put on a ARB or similar type bumper. Where can I get one, does anyone have one for sale? Any advice on bumpers and rails?
2.Do I do anything with the suspension? Not looking to go climbing hectic rocks or anything but would like to do some exploring of botswana etc. What to do?
3.Snorkel yes/no?
4. Anything else I guess as I'm a newbie ;)

Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Jakkie,

Fitting a snorkel is well worth it. Makes an enormous difference to the lifetime of the air filter. It surely reduce the amount of dust and sand that goes into the air intake.

ARB type bull bars...? If you can find one you will be very lucky. Always worth it to have one fitted, but due to unavailability, most people go for the custom build route, but this can be very expensive.

A rear diff lock will surely improve the ability of this already very capable vehicle.

A suspension lift can be achieved by fitting an after market suspension system such as Old Man Emu or Ironman. If you ever have to cross a rocky obstacle, you will be very happy that you have fitted them.

Good luck en enjoy your Pajero. Lots of fun awaits you!
