I had sourced 2in block lift kit from Russia and LSD from Turkey. The last photos shows the GV in its elements soaked in mud and rain.Įven removing the stabilizer bar doesn't cause any difference especially up to 100kmph, it becomes more responsive to unevenness on the ground and certainly aids in traction and prevents wheel spin where it generally would lift a wheel. In addition to the above, got it painted, added door insulation along with lubrication of critical components.Īttached photos as self explanatory of the end result, the wheel arches have been extended to accommodate snow chains and the 245/75/R16 tyres have beefed up the look big time while increasing the ground clearnace by approx 100mm over the standard. I wanted to take up a project of making the GV more capable offroad and the criteria was: I sincerely believe that it is a perfect package but was released ahead of its time in India. ![]() It is capable of doing a lot more especially if it is given a little bit of extra ground clearance and decent set of tyres. I have over the years followed GV in international markets and have been impressed with its performance as a compact overland vehicle. The one and only Grand Vitara that can challenge the bigger 4x4s.
