Air lift struts
« on: September 04, 2008, 08:25:33 PM »
Just wondering if there are any air lift struts that fit 02 trackers/vitara's.

I was just wondering if something like these would be useful for an adjustable lift system but even so they are not exactly what I think is needed.


its just an idea that I thought I'd throw out there for input/comment.

I've been looking for such an option.  So far, custom is all I've found, so nothing's cheap.

The plus side would be the ability to dial in inches of lift only when it's necessary.  A major downside is how sensitive the alignment is to changes in suspension height.  A 1/4" difference in height is very significant.

So I guess a double A-arm suspension with extreme angle CV's is out also. :laugh:
