Some help for Europeans io / Pinin wanted to lift
Hi guys,
Poor sellers we have on old Europe... Isn't easy to lift our io/pinin. I swear !
After long research on the web, after finding this great forum, after reading all the subjects suspensions,
after welcoming chat with Claude io, I researched the perfect mix King Spring & Kayaba to lift my new kid...
No one seller accessory parts in Western Europe wanted to think and believe that one day,
Pajero io / Pinin can become an awesome small 4WD truck for funny off-road trips.
Off-road driving in France is became taboo... Nearly forbid it !
I work and drive off road in the countryside, for too long time to hear these silly laws.
I'm also Deputy Mayor of my town. I want / need movement of motocross, quads and 4WD, on our dirt roads to maintain them and prevent fire rescue
In UK, I found this online shop that seems agree to sell worldwide, Kayaba front struts KYB-334405 and Kayaba rear shock KYB-343405 :
Grand Total ship to France : £ 301,97 = € 411,032 = AUD 657,087 = USD 465,919

I contacted them, I expect confirmation of availability and worldwide conditions shipments...
But it does not want to trade with Europe ! (Only Aussie)
Sometimes I fall, but still get up and never give up !
I welcome your comments and your help ...
Best regards
Tintin / Jean-Marc
KYB 334405
I've ordered in September a pair of front shock absorbers, and takes 4-6 weeks to arrive from Germany to UK. It cost me £160 and looking forward to get it . If they are a serious website I will keep you updated.
In regards with rear springs, try easily front springs from Mazda 323/Astina (code: KYB RD1430) . They are common in Europe and easy to find, even from wreckers. Please be aware of having the same size, if you buy from wreckers.
Regards,
Cristian

Have you try to search for the MR992092 for the front instead of the 334405. I think that they are the same, both made by KYB but the MR992092 is the ref from/for Mitsubishi while the 334405 is from KYB to sell from their shop as an after market product. Again check before you buy as I am not 100% sure.
Happy io
My io is now SOLD Thankshttp://pajerio.com/forum/claudes-io-2002-zr-built-thread-onlyhappy-io
