yep i got it all certified by 4wd accessories while i was up in chch. Was a bit of a long winded process with a few cock ups on the way by my part. But we got there in the end and iv also got a 2 inch body lift in there which it needed.
Probably should have followed the due process and had everything ready and planned out before i started, but hey i learnt a bit along the way now and iv got a good out come.

hey, i have one of these calmini 3" kits in my zuki and i reckon they are a pretty good setup, except for the camber issues, only other issue is that the left side of the vehicle is slightly higher than the right has anyone come across this before?

hi
when i got the calmini 3inch suspension lift on my 3door vitara i had problems with wheel camber with my 31s plus the car is high on one side.
after having this kit on my truck for a year, the a arm ball joint is stuffed and the rear end is loose and unsafe.
the front end is stiff , and a rough ride, left side shock is buggered, the lower front diff bracket has bent and the bush is buggered.
wish i never got the USA crap!

Sometimes the cv on the passenger side (flanged) does not go all the way in if you take it out when you are working on the suspension, then put it back together.
