A modification package designed to elevate the chassis of a specific vehicle model manufactured in 1998. These packages typically include components such as extended-length springs, shock absorbers, and potentially modified steering linkages. Their purpose is to increase ground clearance, allowing for larger tires and improved off-road performance. For example, an owner of the specified vehicle might install such a package to gain the ability to navigate rougher terrain or achieve a more aggressive aesthetic.
The implementation of this aftermarket system offers several advantages. Primarily, it enhances off-road capabilities by increasing the vehicle’s approach, departure, and break-over angles. This allows the vehicle to clear obstacles that would otherwise damage the undercarriage. Furthermore, the enhanced visual appeal often contributes to a more personalized and customized vehicle. Historically, the demand for these kits grew with the rising popularity of off-roading as a recreational activity and the desire for customized trucks and SUVs.
