4x4 Lift Kits and Suspension

Purchasing a 4wd Suspension kit or 4x4 lift kit for your 4wd is a big decision

A lot of information has to be thought through and collated to get the best suspension result

to suit both your needs as a driver and the vehicle's needs.

Below are a few questions you will need to answer or research before making a suspension decision.

Firstly lets consider your needs.

• What are you intending to do with your vehicle?

• Are you primarily just going off road and want maximum flex and articulation?

• Are you towing a caravan, boat or a camper for extended periods of time or just once in awhile ?

• Are you after a good balance of offroad ability but can tow and handle onroad as well?

• Are you looking for a comfortable ride for your daily driver with some added height for larger wheels?

• Will the vehicle fit in my Garage after the lift installation?

• What are my legal obligations with a lift kit ?

• What are my expectation with a suspension kit ride quality, offroad ability, onroad handling ?

What are the vehicles needs?

• What accessories do I have on the vehicle?

• Where are those accessories located on the vehicle?

• What is the weight of the accessories?

• Are you over GVM?

• Do you have future modifications planned?

• Do I need adjustable load carrying eg. bellows or airbag system

• What type of suspension does my vehicle have - Live axle - Torsion bar - Strut(IFS) - Leaf Spring

• What are the limitations of my vehicles suspension design?
