The phrase denotes a collection of components designed to modify or replace the existing system responsible for vehicle handling and ride quality in a specific model year of a popular sport utility vehicle. This assembly commonly includes items such as springs, shock absorbers, and potentially other hardware to achieve a desired outcome, like enhanced off-road performance or improved on-road comfort.
Upgrading or replacing these components can offer several advantages, ranging from increased ground clearance for off-road endeavors to a refreshed, more controlled driving experience on paved surfaces. The availability of aftermarket solutions allows vehicle owners to tailor the vehicle’s behavior to their specific needs and preferences. Historically, the modification of these systems has been a popular method to adapt vehicles for diverse terrains and driving conditions.
