Hi have a couple of questions about the sq420 Vitara SWB. Are they funamentally similar to the sv420? Are they still full chassis? Rigid Axle coil rear? Coil front end not ifs?

Would be looking at a 30mm lift from these guys:

What would be the tyre size of choice to run with this kit on stock rims?

My preference of tyre is probably Bridgestone Desert Dueler.

Hoping someone can help me out!

they have pretty much the same running gear as the sv420's apart from the rear suspension. the sq420's run a 5 link set up.

dobinsons make good stuff.... :wink:

tyres are a personal choice, i would go for something a bit more modern... the dessert dueler has been around for years & i don't think it's ever been updated. i would look at the new KM2 BFG or the new MTR.

Thanks for the speedy replies! So the rear is not rigid axle?

yeah they are solid as joseph said... the SV420 & all earlier vitara's ran IFS front & a 3 link solid rear (2 lower links & a upper V link with the point of the V mounted to the diff with a ball joint) the SQ420's & untill they went to the GV3 ran IFS front & 5 link solid rear (2 lowers, 2 uppers & a panhard rod) both set ups seem to work well off road once longer springs & shocks have been fitted.
