Lift no Suzuki GIII - Vale a pena ver novamente
The Rocky Road 2 1/8" Grand Vitara lift
2006 and newer
Always on the forefront of the Suzuki aftermarket, Rocky Road proudly introduces the very first suspension lift available for the unibody Grand Vitara, 2006 and newer. This awesome system allows you to easily bolt-on 2.125" of lift to your vehicle. No need for a professional installation with specialized equipment. Rocky Road enginered this system so those who want to do the installation on their own can do so easily in their own garage.
Our photos can't really do justice to how great this vehicle looks with some lift and beefier tires, but you can begin to get the idea.
Installs quickly (our complete install time is roughly 50 minutes). Anyone handy with a set of wrenches can install this system. No special tools needed. Also, any alignment shop can use camber bolts or a number of other items with our system to put you right back to factory spec!
Clearance is the main reason we started work on this system. The Grand Vitara has pretty much the worst undercarriage clearance of any vehicle in its class... much less anything with 4WD. Even Subaru cars can get you further down a dirt road than a stock Grand Vitara. To us, that is just blasphemy! So whether you are looking get a little more daylight under your rig for some offroading adventure, or just want to make your little Suzuki into a head-turning mean machine, Rocky Road gets the job done. No vibrations, no bad CV angles, nothing but the same excellent ride quality you've always had.... just a bit taller.

"newgrandvitara.net", the hottest online resource for the new Grand Vitara gave us a screaming review on the installation of the Rocky Road kit on their project rig. For more information on their experience, click on the Metatrox project GV photo to the right.
Maximum recommended tire size (won't rub with most brands of tires) is 245/75/r16.

Kit contains:
http://www.rocky-road.com/media/bullet.gifFront Strut spacers. Our lifetime warranty steel spacers don't change or modify your ride quality. You get all the lift without any downsides. Very easy to install, they bolt right onto the top of your strut assembly. Extremely easy to install and no spring compressor or strut compressor is necessary.
http://www.rocky-road.com/media/bullet.gifRear coil spacers. Again, our lifetime warranty coil spacers give you the perfect amount of lift without any reduction in ride quality or comfort. Only minutes to install.
http://www.rocky-road.com/media/grand_vitara_lift1.jpg http://www.rocky-road.com/media/bullet.gifRocky Road HYDRO rear shocks. We've been around Suzukis and Geos for awhile and have designed a shock perfect for the moderate weight of our Suzukis. Our shocks not only ride soft though, they are a great long travel shock that won't hold up your suspension flex.

If you're not sure your GV can tackle tough trails... you just need to spend an afternoon with Jerry to dispell that myth right out of your head.
Jerry also runs our Rock slider kit.

Don't drool too much...
Karel Doosje and his team at Automotive Innovations in the Netherlands
took this Grand Vitara project to the extreme for the Netherlands Auto Show
using our suspension lift, among many of their own custom modifications of
course.
Who was the one single shop they came to for suspension equipment?
Yes... Rocky Road Outfitters
Now we can't guarantee your Vitara will look this cool with our components
installed... but at least it won't look like the Mazda MPV mini-van anymore
either :^)

Barulho no GVIII automático
Amigos,
Já tem algum tempo que detectei um barulho meio abafado (quase um ronco meio surdo) quando a viatura está rodando com cerca de 2.000 rpm, principalmente em aclives suaves. O barulho é semelhante ao som de pneu mud em asfalto. Não é muito alto, mas chega a incomodar, principalmente no asfalto. Já conversei com o pessoal da concessionária e eles confirmaram que o barulho existe (portanto, não é imaginação do dono), mas não encontaram a causa. No início, associaram à colocação dos protetores em baixo GVIII, mas o amigo Ffreitas (aqui do Fórum), que também detectou o barulho, rodou sem os protetores e o barulho persistiu. Há a desconfiança de que isto ocorra apenas nas viaturas automáticas, mas não tenho certeza. Alguém pode ajudar???
Saudações
