This aftermarket modification involves a collection of components designed to increase the ride height of a specific sport utility vehicle manufactured by Mitsubishi in 2002. The kit typically includes springs, shocks, and sometimes spacers or other hardware necessary to elevate the vehicle’s body or suspension relative to the axles.
The primary advantage of such a system is enhanced ground clearance, enabling improved off-road performance by reducing the risk of undercarriage damage. Furthermore, the increased height can allow for the installation of larger tires, further contributing to off-road capabilities and altering the vehicle’s aesthetic appearance. The practice of modifying vehicles in this way has a long history within the off-roading community, often driven by the desire for increased capability and a more aggressive stance.
