I also know nothing about Vitaras, but I really like the way yours is looking!

Re: new to suzuki and off roaders
thanks all im more in to rally cars really my dailey driver is a mk2 escort but i enjoy the vitara had a good look today its seems to have 40mm wheel spacers
it seems to be lifted 4"
the only issue i have is the camber is positve a lot, the camber bolts are at its maximum so will i need to slot it and weld the origional hole up

Re: new to suzuki and off roaders
Im unsure on how the model mks go
As the old vitara long wheel base was called a grand vitara
for a period. I think it was when the bigger front end was fitted
for the v6 and diesel model.
