I have done a search and learnt that strut top flip only works with Vitara.
I can't find anywhere, an explanation of the reasons why it doesn't work for a GV.
Could someone kindly outline the differences to this noob.
Please excuse my ignorance.
Cheers

I think it has to do with the brace bar that goes across the top of the two struts. Normal Vits don't have them.
I don't have a GV so this is 2nd hand info.

i'm pretty sure you are correct christover. brace bar - and the mount for the strut is different at least from my vit based X-90 to my XL7 they're totally different.

Will not work on a gv
It would drop it like 150mm and u wouldnt be able to bolt the strut brace back on.

I figured that it may have been to do with the cross brace.
Thanks for your input.
