Hey All!
           I recently picked up a 2003 Grand Escudo (XL-7 in some countries). and I would like to lift it between 2"-3". I really would like some advice in the best way not to mention cost effective to accomplish this.
I have come across a few kits on the net and based on all you guys who have done this, was wondering which kit would work best.

IF ANYONE KNOWS OF ANY OTHER KIT PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

Kit number 2 is actually made by me. It will fit the Escudo if it is the same as the Vitara or XL-7. If you want that kit I can get you a better deal if bought directly. 

Hello,

I have the masterkit1 3 inch lift on my '04 xl-7 and you can not fit 31" tires, I tried 245/75/16's and they rubbed bad and went back to 225/75/16's which you can run stock.  this lift is also noisie,  alot of squeaking with the metal spacers. hope this helps in your decision.  let me know if you have more ? about masterkit1 lift.

245/75/16 you will need to run 3" sup. lift and 2" body lift plus a little wheel arch work to fit.
