Hi, been looking into some 50 mm spring spacers and confused about one thing. Can I put 50 mm spacers in both the front and back? Or am I spose to put 25mm in the front and 50 mm in the back? Cheers, Phil |

Assuming you are talking about Vitara coil spacers, 25 mm front will give 50mm lift and 50mm in the rear to give the same result. The front coils work on a different ratio due to the spring being in closer. Rough way of a lift but yes it works. Think about getting some OME shocks for the front as std struts tend to have a habbit of topping out with 50mm of lift, they are to my knowledge the longest replacement strut on the market unless someone can correct me. |

If its a vitara your talking about then yes you put half in the front of what your putting in the back because of the ifs. |

Yeah, talking about a Vitara- I forgot to mention that...sorry. Thanks for the info. Yep, a bit of a short cut for a lift but just want a tad more height. Pretty happy with the stock suspeion set up I have- for now anyway. Thanks again. Cheers, Phil |

What others have said is generally true and accepted , but I have a steel ARB bar on mine and have 30mm spacers in the front and 40mm in the rear and it looks right . So maybe the half at the front rule is for standard applications . |
