LIFT KIT INSTALL AND TESTING - GWM CANNON - NITROGEN 2.5 INCH SUSPENSION LIFT KIT - SAVAGE TECH AUST 

Hahaha so good to hear that! Thank you 😊 We got hooked watching you tube vids too and now we travelling Australia. Just hope we are inspiration to others 😀 🍻 Cheers mate!!!

Legend!!! Thank you so much! How good is it!!! I would of loved to watch a vid of someone fitting it before I did hahaha

Cheers mate :) My bad haha 🍻

@@wheelsbytheocean All good my friend ..I just bought the XSR yesterday, cant wait to get it home and do a engine tune on it ..

Thank you so much!!! How good is it!!

Hahaha thanks mate!!! A effort indeed! Haha

Thanks mate :) headlight adjustment button on dash is very handy :) and will keep an eye on everything. Nothing seems to be over stressed though so pretty happy with it all :) 🍻 😀

Beautiful!! You'll love it!

Thanks mate!!!!

Nope. Once I lifted it it stopped rubbing. It is very close but all good now :) I do want bigger tyres when these wear out but I'll do body chop then. Savage tech does it pretty cheap and does a neat job. Looks so much better with the fat tyres! My rims are positive 10 offset so gives some nice poke too.

Hahahaha thanks guys!!!

​@wheelsbytheocean hopefully now the kit comes with detailed instructions 😂

Fuel consumption has gone up a bit because of the tyres and a little more wind resistance with the add ons. I had to get rid of some stuff and some extra water and fuel I used to carry. Just made it work because I really wanted to beef up the ute haha. It's all good. And tows better then ever have 😀

I fitted all the accessories at the same time so had to say which is main cause but I'd say tyres are the bigger factor. Used to get 17.3 towing van Now get 19 average while towing 3T

Hey mate, no I didn't install new upper control arms. I just used the stock ones. I've got not issues. Alignment is all good :)

​@@wheelsbytheocean, would you also recommend getting the Savage upper lift arms?

@YU-ed5wn I never got the control arms but I still haven't even got a wheel alignment since I fitted the lift kit haha. So not sure if I need them or not. I gotta get new tyres in a few weeks and will see how the alignment looks

@@wheelsbytheocean thank you. Following your channel, look forward to your next update.

Hey Stock was 265/60R18 Mine are 285/60R18 which i think fit on stock rims too. But may scrub at full lock. The guys at Ozzy tyres are very helpful if you want to chat with them about it :)

Hey mate, I do want to do an update on how all the gear is going. The suspension is going perfectly. I tore the rear shock boot somehow but savage tech is giving me a new one. The suspension has been absolutely perfect and bloody comfortable too. I have used the settings too to see what suits us best. It's good to play around with adjustments. Only thing I would change is I would have gone for the 300kg rear springs as mine are only 200kg spring and just with the caravan on the stronger springs would have suited better. I have nothing bad to say about this suspension and I would definitely recommend it over some of the others I've seen people try. There are so many rigid kits out there that take away all of the comfort. Cheers mate :)

Also I've done almost 30,000kms with then in there and used them on the toughest roads in Australia without any issues and while towing heavy caravan haha.

That is a great quick high level update on the suspension performance, I really appreciate it! I think 30,000kms in hard offroad conditions and towing a 3 tonne van would have shown the weaknesses if any by now for sure. Based on that then I will pull the trigger on a set for myself. I hear you with the rear leaf rating, I still think I will go the 200kgs as I don't tow all day everyday like you, so I will put in some air bags to level out when I do have the big van or my other heavy trailers in tow, bags have helped in my past experiences with other Ute's I have had. FYI I have just clicked 115,000kms in my girl which is a DEC 2020 Build, Delivered May 2021. Still going strong never missed a beat never had a single thing go wrong, I can't believe how good these Cannon's are. I sold my 2022 DT RAM 1500 Limited after only 9 months and 20,500kms and just run in my Cannon X now. TBH other than a cool sounding V8 & 4.5T towing capacity, the Cannon does everything the RAM did and in some cases better, the front seat comfort in the Cannon is 100% better that the RAM in everyway. Anyway enough about that, thanks again. Now get back to the trip of a lifetime and keep making your great videos! @@wheelsbytheocean

I just got contacted by an exhaust place who wanted us to do that to ours but I don't want to touch the motor. So just leaving mine stock. If it was just my ute and not the family car I'd probably do it. Someone did say it didn't make a huge difference in sound also from dpf back

Hey mate, I'm so happy with the Ute! We love it. 52,000kms now. Suspension is amazing! It absolutely loved the Gibb and also Cape York. All that corrugation and its still good as new. I'm working on a 50,000kms review at the moment :) I'd definitely buy another GWM when it's time.

@wheelsbytheocean I was sceptical as of them considering where they started. You and a few others have completely changed that for me so thanks for that was looking at the ldv t60 but hearing rust is a huge issue in them

Mine never does it now since I lifted it. When we had stock suspension and towing the van it used to shudder like crazy. Now it's all good. It worked for us 😀

@@getdreaded2245 absolutely not. It actually took the driveline vibration away and drives heaps smoothly 😀

Hey mate. Lift Kit is still going strong :) no issues with it at all. Still very comfortable and still feels as new. Handled Cape York and the Gibb corrugation with ease 👌🏽

Awesome when normal driving but very bouncy in front when towing. There was a bit of a shudder on take off at stock height when towing too. I didn't mind the stock suspension if I wasn't towing :) But now I got the lift kit I would never go back hahaha

Thanks. Love the nitrogen lift kit. Does the new 2.5 lift install affect the warranty?

Hahahaha yes mate! So right! I laughed at myself while making this video haha pretty quality parts fitter there 😜 Yes definitely saved some cash. That's what I'm all about. 🍻 👏 ✌️

​@@wheelsbytheocean what size of that tire?

@@muhammadsaddrift2170 Wheels - 18X9 - Positive 10 offset. Tyres - 285/60R18 - Monsta Terrain Gripper All from Ozzy Tyres

@@wheelsbytheocean thank you man

Hahaha I should have!! Definitely recommend a wheel alignment! Chewed my tyres out pretty fast 😜

@@wheelsbytheocean no doubt haha. Just came along your videos since buying a cannon x. Thanks for the reply 👍

@@stibrumby09 nice!! Congrats on your Cannon! Love ours so much Heaps of cool stuff on the channel if you wanna check it out. Cheers mate

@@wheelsbytheocean watching them now lol

Ain't that the truth!!! Lucky the Cannon comes with 5 years free roadside assistance including towing to dealer :) oh happy days hahahaha
