Strut spacers
Posted: Tue Oct 23, 2018 4:00 pm
Now that I have the ARB bash plates fitted, my Wildtrack has turned into a grader, happily pushing sand along in front of the car until I get stuck!
This has got me wanting a lift but I also want to retain the on-road handling and dont need additional GVM so I dont really want to fit a spring/damper kit. I also think that Ford probably knew what they were doing and no aftermarket kit is going to improve the on-road handling/ride quality.
Strut spacers and extended shackles seem like an easy way to achieve a 50mm lift with no real downside other than lifting the centre of gravity.
Anyone here got experience of doing a lift in this way?
