Thanks for the info! I'm looking to swap the air suspension system on my Grand Cherokee to an aftermarket Off-road suspension. This video was very informative.

He sounds like Patrick Mahomes lol. Good video.

Great explanation. Thanks

Thanks 👍

I have installed 30mm wheel spacers after a 2 inch suspension lift on Prado. The wheels are still stock. I have 3 options. Should I get -12 offset and remove spacers? Or Keep spacers with stock wheels Or Get -12 offset and let the wheel spacers be there..

On modern trucks just do a suspension lift And its much more functional. You're still limited by diff height and frame.

So basically for my suv I would want a suspension lift cause it raises every thing leaving no gab like bumper but just costs more is what your saying, trying to figure this out going through different vids

What year and model SUV do you have? Most modern SUVs won’t be able to do a body lift the way older ones did.

I got a 02 Expedition….. seems like the only kit I can find is a 5” body lift that’s listed to give my vehicle enough space to run 33 inch tires. I’m thinking about doin that with 24” inch wheels on 33” tires

I’m kinda new to this, but I have a question? Let’s say I just want a small lift for my truck, like to just for looks, and I carry a lot of weight on the back bed. Do u think I should get a lift or it’s better not to?

@freakfiveoh

Even some lifts will offer the option of keeping the factory rake or level the truck in addition to the lift. In fact, most lifts just add taller blocks to the factory leaf springs. If you just want a little lift for looks then you’d be fine with a decent leveling kit. If you’re worried about too much read squat then I’d look into an air bag kit for the rear like all the RV guys use.

the ONLY reasons that I can think of why modern vehicles are not suitable to add body lift is because all the electronic wirings and hoses being stretched and steering angle rod position changed correct? As long as you keep your body lift at no more than an inch of lift, do you agree it still would be ok to be used with modern vehicles?

In the case of Fords you could raise the body 3 or 4 inches before you started risking harnesses. Steering angle would be the issue and probably would need to mod the steering column. Everything under the hood like hoses and piping would also need to be changed even if you went up an inch. So its totally doable but you're going to be making alot of other mods. Just go with suspension in other words. But its doable. Sincerely Ford Tech

@@Silent_Shadow the ONLY advantage I can think of what body lift is for, is it prevents fender rubbing and allows you to run even bigger tires. And maybe also help with waterfording. That is the ONLY advantage I can think of. Otherwise it doesn't give you more ground clearance and it makes your vehicle less aerodynamic.

You have 2.5 level kit? Your front end looks slightly higher than the back in multiple angles.

I just want to level out my 22 Colorado Z71 for looks, minor off roading for camping and mountain bike riding. It came with 32s a/t tires on it. What does everyone recommend?

If you're not doing anything crazy off-road, a good quality spacer in the front would probably be fine.

This is very late but… I just bought myself an old 96 tacoma (4wd) and would like to lift it… it doesn’t ride low, but just would prefer it to be taller. Sitting on 265/75/r17s at the moment, and would like to buy some larger tires at some point too… I don’t off-road or anything I just like a higher riding truck. Would you recommend lifting it or just changing the tire size? If so, what type of lift/ what size would you recommend?

I'm not sure what type of kits they make for those trucks. A leveling kit would probably be good enough I'd you're just looking for another inch or two higher, and might let you fit a bigger tire. I've never had one of those trucks, so I can't give you any great specifics. I would do a combo of a level or small lift and whatever size tire it would let you fit. Just remember, the bigger and heavier a tire you out on it, it'll drive more slugging and get worse MPG. That'll probably be a lot more noticeable on an older, smaller engine truck.

What tires do you have ? They look nice!

You can depending on the vehicle. It's not as common on newer trucks, but you used to see it a lot more on old jeeps and stuff.

have a question . . . why is it that SUVs equipped with suspension lift have different lift height at the front & rear? for e.g. a lifted 2021 GMC Yukon Denali (1YC) 4WD + 2.0 in. Lift 6.2 V8 5-Dr Full Size SUV (LHD) or a lifted SUZUKI Jimny VX (JB64W) AllGRIP Pro 4WD + 2.0 in. Lift 1.5 Biturbo I4 3-Dr SUV (RHD) . . . both SUVs feature a 2.0 in. lift at the front wheels & 1.5 in. of lift at the rear . . . why is the 1.5 in. lift at the rear less than that of the 2.0 in. lift at front? is it not possible to have the same 2.0 in. of lift both at the front & rear? if not, why? please advise . . .

Most lift kits are designed to level a vehicle out and remove the factory rake. Sometimes you'll see different options for stiffer rear springs if you're expecting to tow a lot of carry a bunch of gear on a regular basis.

Might depend on how old the kit is. Rough Country is a more budget friendly brand, and I know skme.of their old jeep kits had a reputation for sagging over time, but they've updated a lot of their kits and made some nicer stuff. I'm not sure what they make for S-10s, but I'm sure you could find something you'd be happy with.

If you actually spend some time off road, I would say yes. Otherwise, it depends. FX4s will have a locking rear diff, skid plates, and I believe some slightly different shocks/struts. If you plan to stay on the road, but maybe have some bad weather in your area, then you can just stick with a regular 4x4 package, and add a locking diff as a separate option.
