4" PLUS Radzikone Lift Kit
for Suzuki Vitara I / X90
1.6 8v / 1.6 16v (1989–1998)

(In Santana Vitara I 1994–2003 modifications required*)

Designed for the toughest off-road conditions.
Also suitable for daily driving.
The biggest advantage is the extended front A-arms and rear control arms.
WARRANTY: 10 years for Radzikone parts and 3 years for shock absorbers, springs and polyurethane components.

*NOTE: in 1994–2003 models with VIN starting with “V”, “weak” Spanish drive shafts with too small working angle were used – they must be replaced. Read more.

What Makes the 4" PLUS Version Different from the Standard 4" Lift?


At the front, extended VB A-arms move the wheels significantly forward and slightly outward, and there is 35 mm of additional ground clearance under the arms. They are designed without a stabilizer bar, which further improves articulation off-road and increases comfort on uneven terrain.
Two A-arm versions are available: for original front drive shafts or longer reinforced ones. Read more.

At the rear, extended control arms together with shock absorbers longer by 16 cm (5 cm longer than those in the standard 4" Lift) provide even greater articulation.
Optional softer rear springs are available for “lightweight” vehicles (without rear seats, spare wheel etc.)

Summary:
Vitara equipped with the 4" PLUS Radzikone Lift Kit handles confidently, with significantly improved off-road capability, articulation and ground clearance – it becomes a completely different vehicle.

This is the ideal setup for 30" tires on Suzuki Vitara (235/75 R15 / 235/70 R16, 225/75 R16, 245/70 R16 / 30x9.5 R15), and with slight trimming of the bumper and mud flaps even 31" (255/70 R16, 245/75 R16, 265/70 R16 / 31x10.5 R15)
In combination with 2" Body Lift tires up to 33" can be fitted (265/75 R16 / 32x10.5 R15, 33x10.5 R16)
Such large tires work best on original alloy rims with ET3 offset (from Vitara I 1989–1995) and ET5 (from Grand Vitara I / XL7 1998–2005) or new steel rims with ET0 (Factory steel rims from Vitara have ET25 offset, so the wheels sit further inside, but they can still be used on cars without factory plastic fender flares.)
Rims with strongly negative offset (ET -25, ET -30...) are not recommended – the more negative offset, the more the wheels stick out and this negatively affects the steering and suspension: the steering wheel gets pulled on bumps and ruts, accelerates wear of steering linkage, steering rack, front shock absorbers and wheel bearings. The vehicle becomes less predictable to drive. It may feel better only on perfectly smooth roads. We do not recommend it.

**IMPORTANT: If your vehicle does not have a front winch installed – do not buy the winch version kit. Installed on a vehicle without a winch it will damage the front shock absorbers and cause incorrect front wheel camber.

Front spring height is selected based on the number of doors, engine type and the presence of a winch. This is very important, as the height of the front of the vehicle directly affects the camber angle of the front wheels. Incorrectly selected springs cause improper wheel angles, resulting in poor vehicle handling and significantly accelerated shock absorber wear (limited suspension travel and bottoming out).
If a winch is only planned at the time of purchase, contact us after it is installed. We will then select appropriate metal adjustment spacers mounted above the upper front spring seats, allowing correction of vehicle height and front wheel camber.
*NOTE: if the VIN starts with “V”, 1994–2003 Santana Vitara models were equipped with “weak” Spanish drive shafts with too small working angle – they must be replaced. Read more.
