TORSION BAR SET, 4WD/ DODGE RAIDER, MITSUBISHI 4WD/MONTERO '82-89, 26MM X 50.38" LONG
- Application: Front Torsion Bar Set
- Spring Rate: +20% to +30% over OEM
- Compatibility: Works with both lifted (cranked) and stock-height configurations.
Mitsubishi Montero (1st Gen): 1982 through 1989 (4WD models)
Mitsubishi Mighty Max (Pick Up) 4WD: 1982 through 1989
Dodge Raider 4WD: 1987 through 1989 (Rebadged Mitsubishi Montero)
Material: Solid aircraft-grade alloy steel, chosen for its exceptional fatigue resistance and "torsional memory."
Manufacturing: Centerless ground to ensure a perfectly linear spring rate and remove surface micro-imperfections that can lead to stress cracks under heavy oscillation.
Heat Treatment: Through-hardened and shot-peened to maintain ride height and prevent the front end from "settling" or sagging over time.
Finish: Industrial powder coating for superior protection against road salt, moisture, and trail debris.
❌ 2WD Models: These bars are specifically splined and length-tuned for the 4WD Independent Front Suspension (IFS) geometry. They will not fit 2WD Mighty Max or Ram 50 pickups.
❌ Post-1989 V6 Models: While some 1989 models began transitioning to the larger 2nd-generation chassis components, these bars are strictly for the 1st-generation narrow-body platform. If your 1989-1991 Montero has the factory wide-body or 3.0L V6, verify your bar length matches the 1st-gen spec.
- ❌ Pre-1982 Models: Will not fit early 1st-generation pickups (1978–1981) which utilized different suspension mounting points and bar lengths.
