  • The TANK 300 survived the thrashing it received at Loveday… or did it? We get a mechanic to have a look underneath and decide if this is really going to be a dwcnr car for ongoing off-roading. Also, what are biggest tyres we can fit without any dramas

    I’m not even a mad off road fan, but I’m loving these videos… and this car seems bloody good value. Like you said, it might be a game changer here… especially if it proves to be a robust platform to build on!

    if you raise it more than 2inches, you need change the suspension linkages, they are not long enough for the modification and they might come off while driving. It was a common mistake for people whom raised tank 300 too much back in China.

    Very insightful video on what goes on behind the scenes when companies make aftermarket parts.
    Fascinating that so many people were calling this a Suzuki Jimny with more power but now it looks like it's more like a shorty patrol.
    It's been out for years already overseas so you can tell Great Wall wanted to get it right before they released it here and it looks like they did a good job. Time will tell, of course but this is going to make alot of Aussies very happy.

    friendly advice : need to change to a longer control arm and reset the Camber angle if you raise it very high or risk control arm popping off from the knuckle. But you seem to know what you are doing, I'm not too worry.👍👍

    Nice. I threw 32" KO2s straight on this, thought I might be able to go with 33s but didn't want to risk it, and I have a bit of a language barrier here, so I am keenly following along with your vids. I'll go larger when I get a lift. Getting upgraded under body armour, so good to know about the power steering too. Cheers mate.

    Would a 17inch rim fit around the brake callipers or even a 16 inch?? Offroad performance focused cookie cutter 235s could prob go 34inch with a 1-2inch lift. That would look a bit old fashioned but works off road….

    Enjoying seeing this Tank 300 content, keep it up! I reckon it would look so much better if they got rid of that big badge in the middle of the front grill. Is there a way you could remove that simply, or would it have some form of backing plate that would look silly too then? A replacement grill even just without the badge would probably be a good mod I reckon.
    Also, I've always wondered when doing those wheel clearance checks, whether you need to try having the front wheels turned on full lock while lifting it to see if they would rub anywhere whilst they are turned?
