Hi all, I've had myself a nice 97 sv420 vitara for a while now but am quite new to doing modifications myself, not the most mechanically minded. I'm looking at giving it a few inches lift but I'm on a pretty tight budget, I've noticed these spring spacers and was just wondering what else has to be done, I.e. Do I need shock spacers as well and anything else? Or is it as simple as putting some chicks above the springs and that's it.
Cheers, Will.

Depends what size spacers. 30mm spacers will be alright with stock shocks but any bigger you would want to get longer shocks or shock extensions

Depends on what you are trying to acheive by lifting it? IMO a body lift is the cheapest way to fit some bigger rubber but thats for fitting bigger tyres, depends on what your trying to acheive
Body lift - PM just_cruizin if you want to head that path, or
if you are deadset on spacers PM Bruce to get some made for you.

Thanks for the replies. I'm just trying to fit some bigger tyres and have a but more room for flex but mine is an auto and I believe they aren't very easy to install body lifts in. But if so, I would love to know how!
