Some Of The Brands We Carry Include...
LIFT KITS
A lift kit is a suspension upgrade designed to raise a vehicle’s ride height, providing additional ground clearance and a more aggressive stance. Lift kits come in various forms, ranging from mild leveling kits that add just a few inches to full suspension systems that significantly elevate the entire chassis. These kits are especially popular among off-road enthusiasts who need extra clearance to navigate rocky terrain, deep ruts, or uneven trails without damaging the undercarriage.
There are two primary types of lift kits: body lifts and suspension lifts. A body lift raises the body of the vehicle from the frame using spacers, offering a modest increase in height primarily for aesthetics or to fit larger wheels and tires. In contrast, a suspension lift involves replacing or upgrading key suspension components—such as shocks, springs, control arms, and lift blocks—to increase overall clearance and improve off-road capability. Suspension lifts typically offer better performance benefits but require more extensive installation and alignment work.
Installing a lift kit can dramatically change a vehicle’s appearance and performance. It allows for the installation of larger tires, which can enhance traction and ride quality in rough conditions. Additionally, a properly installed lift kit can improve approach, departure, and breakover angles, making it easier to tackle steep inclines or obstacles. Whether you're aiming for a rugged, trail-ready build or simply want a taller, more commanding road presence, a lift kit offers a customizable solution tailored to your driving needs.
LEVELING KITS
A leveling kit is a suspension modification that raises the front of a vehicle to match the height of the rear, creating a more balanced and even stance. Most trucks and SUVs come from the factory with a slight rake—where the rear sits higher than the front—to accommodate heavy loads or towing. A leveling kit corrects this difference by lifting the front end, typically by one to three inches, without altering the rear suspension.
Leveling kits are generally more affordable and easier to install than full lift kits, making them a popular choice for drivers looking to enhance appearance and functionality without major modifications. They commonly use strut spacers, coil spring spacers, or torsion bar keys depending on the vehicle’s suspension design. While the main goal is to achieve a level look, these kits also allow for the installation of slightly larger tires and can improve ground clearance on the front end.
Beyond aesthetics, leveling kits offer practical benefits. They help eliminate nose-dive during braking, improve weight distribution for plow attachments or light towing, and allow for a more aggressive tire fitment without the added cost of a full suspension lift. Ideal for daily drivers, work trucks, or light off-road use, a leveling kit provides a simple yet effective upgrade for those who want a cleaner stance and better functionality.
LOWERING KITS
A lowering kit is a suspension upgrade that reduces a vehicle’s ride height, bringing it closer to the ground for improved handling, a sportier appearance, and enhanced performance. Lowering is especially popular among car enthusiasts who prioritize sleek styling and a more aggressive driving feel. These kits are commonly used on sports cars, performance sedans, and custom trucks to reduce body roll, increase cornering stability, and achieve a more refined stance.
Lowering kits typically include components like shorter coil springs, drop spindles, lowering blocks, or adjustable coilovers—depending on the type of vehicle and the desired drop. By lowering the center of gravity, these kits can dramatically improve handling response and reduce aerodynamic drag. However, because the suspension has less travel, it's important to ensure proper shock damping and alignment to maintain ride quality and prevent premature tire wear or suspension strain.
Aside from performance benefits, lowering a vehicle offers a custom aesthetic that stands out on the road. The reduced wheel gap gives the vehicle a more planted, purposeful look, often paired with wider wheels or performance tires for added flair. Whether you're aiming for track-ready handling or simply want a cleaner, low-profile style, a lowering kit is a popular and effective choice for transforming both the look and feel of your ride.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a lift kit do?
A lift kit raises a vehicle’s suspension to increase ground clearance, improve off-road capability, and allow for larger tires. It enhances the vehicle’s ability to navigate rough terrain, improves approach and departure angles, and gives it a taller, more aggressive stance. Lift kits can also improve visibility and give drivers a more commanding view of the road, making them a popular choice for off-road enthusiasts and those seeking a rugged look.
What does a leveling kit do?
A leveling kit adjusts the front suspension of a vehicle to match the height of the rear, eliminating the factory rake and creating a more even stance. It’s commonly used to improve aesthetics, reduce nose-dive during braking, and allow for slightly larger front tires. Leveling kits are an affordable, straightforward way to enhance both form and function, especially for trucks and SUVs used for daily driving or light towing.
What does a lowering kit do?
A lowering kit reduces a vehicle’s ride height, lowering the center of gravity to enhance handling, cornering stability, and overall road performance. It also gives the vehicle a sleek, sporty look by minimizing wheel gap and creating a more aggressive stance. Lowering kits are popular among performance and custom car enthusiasts looking to improve both aesthetics and driving dynamics.
Is there any maintenance required after suspension modifications?
Yes, suspension modifications often require additional maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity. After installing a lift, leveling, or lowering kit, it’s important to get a professional alignment to prevent uneven tire wear and ensure proper handling. Periodic checks of suspension components, bolts, and bushings are also recommended, as the altered geometry can lead to increased stress on certain parts over time.
