A suspension or body modification specifically designed for the specified vehicle model and year, elevates the vehicle’s frame or body relative to its axles. This modification typically involves replacing or supplementing existing suspension components, such as struts, springs, or spacers. An example would be installing a 2-inch strut spacer on all four corners of the mentioned vehicle to increase ground clearance.
The principal benefit of this modification is increased ground clearance, enabling improved off-road capability and the ability to navigate obstacles more effectively. Historically, such modifications were primarily performed by off-road enthusiasts seeking enhanced performance in challenging terrains. However, increased aesthetic appeal and improved visibility in urban environments have contributed to its growing popularity among a broader range of vehicle owners.
