QUOTE(siksa @ Dec 19 2012, 04:02 PM) not changing the nut but turning it,you can lift you ride by turning it up and lower it by lowering it???.changing absorber wont affect your 4x4 height,only when you turn that nut then it will affect the height. xD i mean change different length absorber.

If Navara is too low, can go to 4x4 shops and modify your car, jack higher, install huge tyres

for the time being im not planning to go for extreme offroad. maybe in the future i will slowly modify it if the budget permits. so for now i am focusing on 4X4 which can satisfy me on current purpose/requirement (50/50).

IM driving a Mitsubishi Storm 2002.
Anyone can diagnose?
My storm if 80kmh and above, the steering will wobble2 excessively.
And the steering just feel too light, will go wild if hit minor bumps etc.
I changed all the absorbers already. Still the same.
Whats the prob? Need new tires? Driveshaft? Steering related problem?
Thank you.

Thank you. tire balancing i am sure of it,i suggest you go for alignment,usually they will tell you if your setup got problem because they cannot align it if there is problem with the suspension.
