I have a 97 sport, 2 door v6 AWD. I'm wanting to put a lift on it after seeing some sweet pics of the same exact model with a super lift kit on it.

What are your thoughts on the 4 inch super lift kit? What will I need to prepare myself for after installing this kit? I know once you start modifying pretty much any vehicle, stuff starts breaking. Anything I should replace with or before I install it? Any stock parts that won't be able to take it? Let me know what you think! ::thumbsup: :thumbdwn:
 






Why not start small and get bigger.

A simple lift is a Shackle/TT lift.
The thing to watch out for the most with a lift are the CV Axles at the front as they will go bad fast.

And as a safety precaution, make sure your entire suspension is up to date.
Ball joints, shocks, sway bars/links, etc.
