An aftermarket modification designed to increase the ride height and ground clearance of a specific sport utility vehicle produced in 1999. These kits generally consist of spacers, extended shocks, or replacement suspension components. Their purpose is to raise the vehicle’s body relative to its axles, allowing for the installation of larger tires and enhancing off-road capability.
Implementing such a modification offers several advantages. Increased ground clearance allows for navigation over rougher terrain, reducing the risk of undercarriage damage. The accommodation of larger tires improves traction and provides a more aggressive aesthetic. Historically, this type of upgrade has been popular among off-road enthusiasts seeking enhanced performance and a customized appearance for their vehicles.
