What kind of lift does that have on it? Doesn't look like the kind of flex I get out of the stock Deli... :shock:

My recently sold L300 before it was lifted. About the maximum articulation possible. This was at Stave Lake, BC...

My new L400. Not so much "flex" but showing maximum departure angle or backwards approach angle depending which way you are driving :-D Taken over the Christmas holidays in Sechelt, BC

The Miss Lil' Bitchi:
Added leaf spring and re-indexed torsion bars amounting to one and one half inch lift but still with stock anti-sway bars (stablizers).

Delica's have Flex?? You sure?

Here is a picture of mine pre-me owning it showing off it Flex.

This is bumper flex! (This is why mine has the bed slide and tire moved behind the back axle).

That flex and departure angles has me wondering where I should install extra back up lights on my L400. Looks like they'd be torn off under the rear bumper. Any ideas??

Did a little trip today and remembered seeing your post Jesse. I found an okay spot but it needed to be a bit higher to get the max flex...she had more to give!

Now for $1 can anyone guess where this was. Hint #1 is that it is in the Southern Vancouver Island area.

Did you find that gem after the purchase?


I always wonder if one of us has this rig: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ld6c0xiVS5I

No I saw it during negotiations help with the price. There was no real damage other then bent bush guard and a dent in the bumper. Frame ect... all fine.

Is this the same lift I bought off of you? If so I'm very excited to install it. If not I'm still very excited :-D

Here's a few pictures of my old beloved Mitsushi showing off her flex and departure angle.
