hey guys, atm i have a suzuki vitara, two inch body..... and what was ment to be a two inch spring lift from pedders, i dont have a issue with how the suspension handles i quite like it, its more the fact its sagged alot, almost to half a inch which is not what i want. (only a year old) atm im happy with the shocks just the load rating on the coils, im looking at a bar for the front and i no it will sage more and a fairly constant load of work tools or camping gear in the rear has taken its toll, i no coils aren't the greatest for load but i have a soft spot for my zook. id love three inch but i have herd calamari aren't the greatest and i could do better, i no ill need diff drops and drive shaft spacers and cv's wouldn't be happy for a three inch, and to be honest i don't think i need three id be happy with a honest and proper two inch kit instead that wont sage alot under weight it if meant less mucking around. whats peoples opinion, i like the tyres and i wouldn't go much bigger its more the height in suspension i want. any help will be great thanks iv had a look around on here and there is mixed answers with what to do, some say iron man some say dobsion others say the cal kits worth it, iv even looked into three inch coils so once it sages and has a load its higher but i don't think that's the right thing to try do. thanks in advance

Calamari is way too soft to use for suspension. Try over cooking it, makes it more rigid.  Sorry I couldn't resist. I'm with Bruce, grab some spacers and retain your current ride quality.

If you like the ride with your pedder coils spacers are a good option. If however you want a heavier duty coil you should do that but may find the ride quality becomes a bit harsh.
