amada Extreme fitted!! was created by stuntbike
Hi bros! New to the jimny world. Would appreciate your help and opinions!

I fitted my sj410 with amada extreme yesterday cuz the stock shocks are totally spoilt.

I have a current set up of 3" BL and together with my SL of 3" so a total of 6". Have all the neccessary set up for a lift. What I need to know is - anyone here also using amada and what is the PPSI you pump into the reservoir?

I'm currently on 40psi at the rear and 80psi in the front. The ride feels a little wobbly and hard on the rear.

Hooyah!

Oh and one more thing. Is it normal when the car tilts to the driver side when it's lifted? Mine's a RHD so ya it tilts to the right on default.

I've never heard of that brand before and if I'm honest I'm not sure what you're talking about. There is only really knowledge about Jimnys as in the model sold from 1998 in the UK on this forum, although I owned an SJ 410, know them well yet still don't understand what you are asking.

Try on suzuki club UK.

I see it's a remote reservoir system! You'll be lucky to find experience of it on here. Tom DK, do you have any experience?

I've only heard good things about Amada suspension. As far as I know, it's for those wanting reservoir shocks or coilovers, but haven't got the money for Fox or King.

About the topic. Sorry no.
But you should try asking the same question on the South African 4X4 community www.4x4community.co.za/forum/ There is an Amada Extreme guy who frequently visits the forum :)

Also might want to try asking the place you bought the shocks. they should be of help.
But get as much info as possible on the SJ. total weight of each corner. Unsprung weight, sprung weight and so on. Also for what use etc. That way you can get you shock valved correctly and set up with correct nitrogen pressure.

I've actually just by accident found out that Amada Extreme makes a reservoir model specific for the Jimny :)
