Mahindra Thar: How Tough Dog suspension has improved ride & handling

I have covered 6000 kms since it's install. I swapped from the stock suspension. There is 100% improvement in the ride and handling of the vehicle.

I have the tough dog setup on my thar too. I have covered 6000 kms since its installation. I swapped from the stock suspension. There is a 100% improvement in the ride and handling of the vehicle. I highly recommend it as the first mod for any other.

I did a Nepal trip on this suspension setup with three ladies on board. The roads were mostly nonexistent in February between the Mugling and Pokhara stretch. Where other vehicles were driving at around 20 kmph, I was comfortably cruising at 40-50 kmph. I must say that the vehicle was loaded with 4 passengers and 5 medium-sized suitcases on the roof. I felt a drastic change in the ride quality, lighter steering feel and lower pitching under braking. With 4 4-year unconditional warranty, one could not ask for more.

Anyone who sits in my T-Rex after any other thar or ladder on frame Suv almost immediately compliments the smoothness on the tarmac. With one or two passengers and no luggage on board, the car feels a little stiff on sharper bumps.
