i started with mount flip, cheap and easy and returns droop to stock with 2inch lift springs
now running strut spacers, just as easy, still cheap as and gives a good amount of droop

My strut mount flip gave me about 20mm, bit less than an inch.
But its more than that at the wheel.

Yeah Im thinking a strut mount flip would be good!

Im just wondering if someone could tell me wether these strut spacers ( http://www.bits4vits.co.uk/store/vitara ... od_17.html) need a 19mm spacer or a 1.5" spacer in the front suspension as if the spacer gives double then shouldnt it only need a 19mm spacer?

thanks guys!

A 20mm spring spacer sounds right to me, but Bits4Vits could give a recommendation
