Using XL7 coils to lift a Grand vitara?

[crazynic]

Does any body know if fitting stock XL7 springs to a 99-05 grand vitara will result in any lift?

Im currently running stock springs with 50mm (25mm F/50mm R) coil spacers, Boge struts with 1.5" strut spacers, Stock KYB shocks with 60mm shock spacers, 1.5" rear bump stop spacers and camber bolts for the front end. Im also not running the front sway bar.

Its a great set-up, stock ride quality with good flex im just after another 20mm of lift front and rear with out stiffening the ride much (if at all).

The above set-up with 225/75 R16 Mickey Thompson ATZ's has done wonders for its off road ability but as you blokes know you always want more!

i know XL7 will give you a tiny lift but the coil is bigger in the rear so the brake line came way to close to the coil for my liking.
