| Post subject: | HD rear shocks for LWB Vitara |
Hi All, Back again. I am running 30" Nexen AT II's on my unlifted Vit. With a load in the back or at speed the rear shocks are compressing enough that the tyres are rubbing up inside the rear wheel arches. Can I put in a set of HD rear shocks to compensate for this or will coils be required as well? If funds allow I am looking at fitting a 35mm suspension lift upgrade, but for now I was wondering if heavier duty shocks will fix problem. Cheers Nick. |

No, sorry shox wont help. A shock only stops the car from continuous bouncing. You need a stiffer spring, or a longer spring, or a spring spacer. Or a longer bump stop, so tyre can't come up so far. Wait till you get your lift in, it may be fine after that. |

Thnx! I'll save the dollars for the shocks and put it too a complete kit. Any ideas on something middle of the road, not too exxy not cheap crap!! Only want to do coils and struts, about 30-40mm lift. |
