    This was taken from the website of hcgalvin of whitepine adventure club based in Idaho, USA. I highly respect this husband-wife team who has done every possible modification they could think of inorder to transform their Sidekick to one extreme killing offroad machine. Yet they found time to write a simple step by step do-it-yourself guide on how to do a 3-inch body lift and 2-inch suspension lift. Very detailed. Hope this would serve as an encouragement to my fellow Vitara owners out there who are contemplating on doing a body and suspension lift as well. Check out the link below:

    Well, if you'd rather let someone do the dirty work, you can always bring your Vitara to Rod of Filmar Katipunan. Just 1 1/2 days needed for a 2-inch body lift for a very reasonable price.

    Just wanted to share a few photos of their offroad machine:







    Hope to follow their footsteps someday :lol:

    Shhhh... baka mabuking ako! Hehehe... Probably do it gradually lang.

    Papasahin ko muna ang Medical Boards sa August. After that, anything goes na.

    oo nga, pasahin mo muna yun.
    tapos, wasakin mo muna ang natitirang buhay sa ifs mo (yun ang recommendation ni wolf den). after masira, saka mo na ipa-solid axle. hehehe :D

    pasakay ha

    Tricky: Northbound lane in front of RATS. Landmark mo is UCPB bank. Rod's gate is the black gate adjacent to it.

    Doc Wiretap,

    Can you give me your contact person and his number sa filmars? I plan to have my Pick-up bodylifted. Mga 2" lang naman. I hope kayanin nila ng 1 day. Please PM me.

    Thanks

    I tried the strut mount flip to compliment my 1" coil spacers.......well, it was not as easy as I thought, you need to modify the bolts when you reverse their orientation......mahirap din tangalin yung bolt ng shocks, you'll need a plumbers wrench to counter the force that you'll apply. But, overall It's worth it!!
