one word of caution m8 dont push ur new toy if im reading ur top post its got a 3" calmini super articulation kit fitted as im sure others on here will back me up this pressure this kit puts on the front axle is imense IMHO bin the big blue kit and fit the pro-comp 1.5" kit and some coil extension ur get 2.75" with this combo it seems to give the front axle less stress
but like i said just my opinion

Simon, I have no idea what you are talking about mate
Seriously though - this happened within 5 minutes of 1st testing the truck after fitting the Calmini kit!!
Either do as Simon says (sorry no pun intended) or get a steel front axle from a Grand Vitara, as I have.

Oh great :evil:
Just picked it up and now there's a post saying it will break. Removing the blue stuff won't be easy as it looks as though various bits of the suspension arms etc have been swapped. Does fitting a GV front axle really sort it and it is it much of a job?
Boggert:
I don't get it, If Fitting the Calmini kit kills the car so quick how come they can sell it?
cotefarmboy:
I agree, that seems crazy, if the kit is sold it should fit the purpose. Looked under it and the front prop seems to go into the diff pretty straight, it has various bits of blue metal correcting the angles etc. Rear one is pretty steep though.
Got a price for a GV front axle, £350 all in, seems an awful lot, should I wait until I break it first?
MrShogun:
not sure mate, does it occur to every vit that has had a calmini lift fitted or what??? Does seem a trifle strange!
