Installation of a Performance Accessories suspension lift kit will change the center of gravity and the handling characteristics of the vehicle. Because of the higher center of gravity and larger tires, the vehicle will handle and react differently both on and off road. You must drive it safely! Extreme care must be taken to prevent vehicle rollover or loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. Avoid sudden sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers and always make sure all vehicle occupants have their seat belts fastened.

1. Raise the vehicle until all weight is off the front wheels, and they hang freely.
2. Remove the following components: • front tires • axle nut • outer tie rod nut and tie rod • disc brake caliper - use a wire (or OTC No. 7661 caliper hanger set) to hold caliper out of the way and prevent damage to brake hose • brake rotor • loosen the lower ball joint from the steering knuckle assembly

Mitsubishi’s MIVEC turbo unit is a direct descendent of Tommi Mäkinen’s 2.0L turbo, a bit refined, but definitely out of the same box as the Evo units. Throttle response is excellent, utilising Mitsubishi’s fly-by-wire electronic throttle control technology, and, more impressive, is the sound the twin exhausts make on over run…more on that a bit later.
