A suspension modification package designed to elevate the body and frame of a specific model of pickup truck by approximately three inches. These kits typically include components such as longer coil springs, strut spacers, or new leaf springs (depending on the vehicle’s suspension type), along with extended-length shocks to accommodate the increased ride height. As an example, installing this type of kit on the designated vehicle would increase ground clearance and allow for the fitment of larger tires.
The primary benefit lies in enhanced off-road capabilities, facilitating navigation over rougher terrain due to increased ground clearance and improved approach, departure, and breakover angles. Historically, modifications of this nature were primarily undertaken by off-road enthusiasts; however, they have gained broader appeal among vehicle owners seeking an aggressive aesthetic or improved functionality for work-related purposes. These kits are engineered to change the vehicle’s suspension geometry, directly impacting driving dynamics and potentially affecting the lifespan of other vehicle components if not installed or maintained properly.
