A guy in the states are making a new lift kit for vits with fox air coilovers http://www.zukiworld.com/forum/general- ... rsidekick/ what r peoples thoughts on this I'm liking the idea after a lot of bracing to the towers his testing a new one that uses gv cv I will be looking closely at it when its done as a would like to get the wheels off the chassis and get more flex pete could u make something like this |

Looks pretty simple to me. Just a new top and bottom bracket. But I'm wondering what the main advantage is? Travel is still going to be limited by the CV's is it not? |

I need a kit as my engineer doest like custom arms.can't see the difference if its made by a proper welder I'm looking at going to a longer cv and bonous of moving wheel forward Also looking at droping the diff and arm mounts down 3" so arms and cv sits level at ride height. I'm more interested in down travel and belly height then front diff clearence.skid plates fix that Do u think a sierra cromo cv would be stroger then a ifs lux cv i don't like how the lux stub sticks out so far |

That sucks i will have to go lux cv then.might have to get more offset rims to protect the fwh when u going to start making kits then new arms that push wheell out and forward and and ur big rear link i think a lot of guys on here want lux cv kits |

Heaps want them but none are prepared to fork out for them. All the parts u need alone add up not to mention the big guys labour. Just limit travel and smash a locker in. Is it bigger tyres combined with lift that kill them? |

The problem with doing hilux CV's on the 1.6 is that you HAVE to do the hagen mod. The SV's area plug and play scenario. |

That where u come in with new arms that move wheel out and forward i have the hagen mod but it sucks as the coil dosnt sit right hence my lower coil spacers I'm droping the front end 2-3" so i will be need longer arms to fit the cv |

highly doubt that fatz will even come close to making his money back on the R&D for such a small production run of one off control arms. see if these turkey's will sell their arms separately http://www.4xfourart.com/eng_vitara.asp |
