Where to buy Vitara Body Lift Kits?
Where to buy Vitara Body Lift Kits?
Ok, i have officially looked everywhere, and i have typed in every possible search phrase in google, and still haven't for a good place that sells Vitara 98 JLX body lifts.
Does anyone know where i can pick up either a 2 inch or even a 3 inch lift kit.
Thankyou.

ded set, I got a 3" on my rat, didn't know they were illegal doh. It is a sierra, duz that make any diff.
I did get conned by ARB as to lift needed, 2" for 31s, then when they scrubbed badly they sed and i rang them back, they sed, oh yea, naaa, you need a 3" body lift as well.
Then, damit, I found this site.
So 3" is illegal ay, hmmmm, oh well, the amount of rust she has would prob make her a bit norty as well.
If it breaks, excellent, time for an upgrade
not a problem in NSW. Engineers certificate required just like any bodylift. Most engineers here are happy with a three inch if lt's done safelyGwagensteve wrote:Illegal, increased leverage on everything, more modificaitons, no real improvement in tyre clearance.

Increased leverage etc isn't a problem if you do it right.
Had a 3 inch kit on a grand for 5 years, thrashed the crap out of it and never had a problem. Never busted a mount, never cracked anything, never fell over, never started grass fires or got your sister pregnant.
Steve, you really need to stop judging everything by your own victorian biased standards. The higher power, lower stance, less flex of victorian trucks doesn't do so great on Sydney sandstone.
Rick has spacers and bodylifts in stock at BBM.

I'm more than aware that what works in Vic doesn't work elsewhere and said exactly that on a thread only last night.Liam wrote: Steve, you really need to stop judging everything by your own victorian biased standards.

However, try and get a 3" BL though the NCOP. You'll struggle. Victorian engineers are working with the NCOP right now on the basis they're going to have to deal with it eventually anyway. I'll guess your state will too, sooner or later.
In any case, I'll stand by my position that 3" body lifts are less desirable than 2", even if, at the moment, they are legal in NSW.

It's hasn't actually got anything to do with whether you've "had a problem" or not - many of us have driven cars that weren't engineered and therefore weren't legal for years and "never had a problem"
It comes down to what might happens if you have an accident injuring a third party, for instance, or if you are asked to provide a RWC for your vehicle to rectify a defect notice.
Ignorance, or "getting away with it" doesn't make it OK - the process you need to go through to drive a legal car is there whether you choose to use it or not.
