Lift Kit Questions

What types of lift kits are available?

Common lift kit options include coil spring upgrades, leaf spring packs, spacer lifts, and complete suspension systems. The best choice depends on your vehicle, intended use, and budget.

How much lift should I choose?

Lift height typically ranges from 25mm to 100mm+ depending on your needs. Moderate lifts (25-50mm) suit general touring, while larger lifts are better for serious off-road use. We'll help you choose the right height for your requirements.

Will a lift kit affect my vehicle's handling?

Any suspension modification will change handling characteristics. A properly designed and installed lift kit should maintain safe on-road handling while improving off-road capability. We only recommend quality systems appropriate for your vehicle.

Can lift kits be installed on any 4WD?

Most 4WDs can accommodate lift kits, but options vary by make and model. Some vehicles have more lift kit choices available than others. We'll advise what's suitable for your specific vehicle.

Do I need other modifications with a lift kit?

Depending on the lift height, you may need extended brake lines, diff drop kits, or other supporting modifications. We'll assess your vehicle and recommend any additional work needed for safe, reliable operation.

Will a lift kit void my vehicle warranty?

Lift kits may affect warranty coverage for related components. We recommend checking with your vehicle manufacturer and discussing warranty implications before proceeding with any modifications.
