I have been doing this over about 2 years I’m just about finished. My car is 2017 with 210,000 miles. The car was down for about 6 months I needed axles I have a 5 speed manual. it was 1500+ for the 2 axles if you have an auto they are much cheaper. I also had to do both wheel bearing To build new struts using all brand new high quality parts cost me about 300$ - for a shop to assemble 300$ - springs 300$ - shock n struts 300$ - boots top hats bearings isolators ets
You know what would be a sick mod for off-roading, a way install a locking differential for either the front or rear, or even a limited slip, been situation where I could’ve used one of the twos.
Thanks for putting these videos out! Given you have both the lift spacers and springs did you have to do any more modifications in order to get the car back in alignment? I know you have an adjustable camber bolt up front and the aftermarket adjustable rear control arm were these enough?
Oh course! Love sharing this build with everyone. And correct that is all I have for alignment front camber bolts and rear adjustable arms. The rear is dialed in pretty good but the front is slightly out and maxed. I am going to see if I can get in it spec now that I’ve put some miles on the springs and hoping they have settled a bit. If it is unable to be aligned fully, I am not aware of any other comments to fix it sadly. But it’s only the camber in the front that is slightly out, so all in all I’m not terribly worried.
I did H&R lift springs and a Tema 4x4 lift spacer kit. The front passenger side CV is shorter than the drivers side at least on the 2WD version. When I had this the axle would hit against the lower control arm at times and make a horrible clunk. You didn’t have this issue? The only way I saw correcting it was a subframe drop but that looks like a massive custom amount of work.
@@user-hb2ve3md6c I have not had the hitting issue both of my front cv axles were starting to go bad before I did the H&R lift. No noise or anything but a hop is felt under acceleration and at steady highway speeds. I have replace my passenger front cv axle with an aftermarket axle due to the boot being torn open and slinging grease all over. My driver side cv axle on the other hand is not torn but is bad as well I tried two different aftermarket axles with the results being worse than the bad oem axle. Eventually I would like to do a subframe drop and replace that axle to correct this issue. I have heard of a few owners performing this subframe drop as well I will see what info I can find and send it your way.
@@Jarred1115 awesome man, thanks! Yeah I had to remove the front spacers and just ran the springs. The rear still has the springs and spacers. Doesn’t look too odd but I’d like to get the clearance back! I’ll look into the subframe drop! Thanks
@@user-hb2ve3md6cthat’s my end goal I have a 5 speed base model. and the front end is like a solid 1.5 inches higher in the front. so just gonna throw the spacers in back but my rear alignment is a little off so gonna do the adj. toe arms and uppers in the rear first. Fwiw the jeep patriot and compass 1st gen share a lot of parts including the subframes so a subframe drop kit may work from one of these models.
What year is your outlander? I have an 18 with the terramax 2 inch lift pucks and have these exact springs on order, anything I should really worry about or anything to help? I do have the camber bolts from the puck lift that will be installed are the rear arms necessary? Not to familiar with suvs know more about trucks so anything helps!!!
Bro!!! just about to do the same but they told me to add Upper Control Arm aftermarket +/- 2 degrees and Alignment Kit bolts to help with the wheels going inn due to both springs and puck lift kits. Did you have any issue with this? we need to get together to compare our 2 builds. !!!!!!
Hope you enjoy it when you get it all installed. With the Detroit axle rear upper adjustable arms I had no issues with the alignment but in the front the cam bolts are maxed out and not fully in spec but barely out.
What size tires were you able to squeeze on there? I have an outlander and I have been entertaining the puck style lift but I don’t want to keep the same size tires
@@dakotaembree6343 I currently have a 235/60R18 I had them in stock suspension and rubbed a little bit then no rub after the ADF spacer lift. Could go bigger now but no need to get rid of these tires just yet.
Another great video. One question... What sway bars do you currently have on your OS?... I'm trying to find something a little bigger than the OEM sway bars, and so far haven't found anything. Thanks for any help you can provide.
I have oem sway bars but looks like ultra racing and white line may have some aftermarket options just from some posts I see in our group. When my sway bar end links go bad I’m planning on getting the moog ones
@@Jarred1115 Thanks for the reply. I contacted Whiteline and they said they didn't have any compatible with the SE AWD Outlander Sport... Just looking at some of their sway bars, it seems that there are a few that would work, along with the adjustable end links. Will definitely look at the others you mentioned.
How is axle lid going this high? I’m assuming it has independent front suspension and rear? I haven’t actually worked on one of these before but my mom has one and she wants to do something like this! I just don’t want her breaking anything. Have you had any issues with axles binding or anything?
I had to replaced one axle unrelated to the lift because the boot torn and wore it out. And my other front axle is currently bad and causes a slight vibration on take off but goes away at cruising speeds. I would say with both lift springs and lift spacers in you will have issues with the front cv axles unless you correct if by doing a subframe drop. If you only do one of the lift options which I would suggest the springs as a standalone you should have too many issues. The angle it puts on the cv axles is not too bad.
From my understanding yes. The newer generation ASX, RVR and Outlander Sports share the same suspension so these springs should be a direct replacement adding in some lift to the suspension.
Looking at my mpg data that I’ve logged I do not see any difference compared to last fall/winter without the lift springs and my current mpg with lift springs. With both I’m seeing my average between 22-24mpg.
Hy guy! how many lift with only h&r spring? Do you if this spring are good for outlander phev 2018? I'm look to buy kingspring or adf lift kit... I think adf lift kit is better with rear arm to can modified rear camber value like original or at choice (+-1,75°). What do you think about this idée. What is the better choice? Thanks lots. Tom (France).
Sorry for the late response just H&R should be 1.2” and just ADF should be 1.5” of lift. I am unaware of the king spring lift. I certainly recommend installing the adjustable rear upper control arms with either option.
Now thats proper ground clearance for off road trails! Looking great....i love seeing Outlanders and Sport versions being used for trails.👍
Thanks! I need to start looking for some trails around here that are suitable for this thing.
How's that JATCO cvt holding up?
I can't say it looks good, but the TH-cam algorithm brought me here so I'll give you a like!
I have a 2017. Want to do this !
Do it up!!!

Looks awesome 😎
Appreciate it! 🤝

That would be really cool! I’ve never looked into it but I wonder if there are options from other Mitsubishi platforms that use the same rear end
You can have a lsd insert made for them buy a diff builder. I can't remember the name of the company.
How it cost sir? I wanna do this to my outlander too.

What’s the ground clearance now?
Right around 11” all the way under. Trans pan and oil pan are almost 12” and rear diff is 12.5”

Perfect! yea i just got the same Detroit arms for the rear and Alignment Kit will do the trick@@Jarred1115
Love how it looks, Also have an Asx 2011 and I wants to do this , any recommendations? Am in Dominican Republic.
where can i buy that spring ? look awesome 👍👍
Good job on the lift, any plans for skid plates?

Do they fit the Outlander 4wd type 2 as well? The 2012 model. Thank you
I don’t believe they would work on that model year from a quick search online looks as the suspension is different in that generation
It can be fitted on a 4x2 ASX 2010+?
From my understanding yes. The newer generation ASX, RVR and Outlander Sports share the same suspension so these springs should be a direct replacement adding in some lift to the suspension.
Yes, it fits in asx 👍
Does it affect the gas per mile?
Looking at my mpg data that I’ve logged I do not see any difference compared to last fall/winter without the lift springs and my current mpg with lift springs. With both I’m seeing my average between 22-24mpg.
Hy guy!
how many lift with only h&r spring?
Do you if this spring are good for outlander phev 2018?
I'm look to buy kingspring or adf lift kit...
I think adf lift kit is better with rear arm to can modified rear camber value like original or at choice (+-1,75°).
What do you think about this idée.
What is the better choice?
Thanks lots.
Tom (France).
Sorry for the late response just H&R should be 1.2” and just ADF should be 1.5” of lift. I am unaware of the king spring lift. I certainly recommend installing the adjustable rear upper control arms with either option.
