Should I go with Old Man Emu and a Rocky Road lift or go with a super articulating kit from Calmini. Although I will be doing a lot of off roading, I still want my '97 Sidekick Sport to be very liveable on the street.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
-
just from the ammount of calimini users it seems calmini..i will be going the 6" combo route in a few months =)
OME seems to be not bad either lol..i didnt help much sorry..other people will chime in =)
-
Calmini stuff doesn't work on the Sidekick Sport. :'(

Old Man Emu  worked for me. But anybody that sells ARB can get it ;D

Ya unfortunately the Calmini kits wont work on a sidekick sport, so I guess your gonna have to go with the RR kit.
-
you should be able to coil spacers from anywhere...they don't have to come from rro
-
Calmini will work on the sport but it will need a couple of mods. You will need to mod the front axle lowering mounts as the chassis is wider on the sport and you will need the balljoints from a 1.6 for the lower control arms.
-
do the control arms even fit?
-
Yep, a guy in our club is running it on his.
-
I've got OME on mine and it works ok but it's not the ultimate and I am trying to find ways to improve it at the moment but their struts are the best. Even Calmini isn't the ultimate but they do have the wider control arms for the front and you can get more out of the back with their kit but people like Mike modify it still further.

the ultimate would be SAS. there isn't a better bolt-on system available than the CALMINI though. The other setups are just glorified body lifts.
