2″ ARB/Bilstein Lift Kit for Mercedes G-class W463
Enhance the performance and stance of your Mercedes G-class W463 with the comprehensive 2-inch lift kit by ARB and Bilstein. This kit is designed to deliver superior off-road capabilities, improved ride quality, and a more commanding presence.
Kit Components:
- ARB Springs: These high-quality springs are engineered to provide a 50mm (2-inch) lift. They are designed to enhance ground clearance and allow for larger tire fitment while maintaining ride comfort and vehicle stability.
- Bilstein B8 5160 Shocks: Featuring a remote reservoir, these shock absorbers are specifically designed for lifted trucks and SUVs. The remote reservoir increases cooling capacity and wheel travel, optimizing overall performance. The monotube design ensures consistent, fade-free performance, and the velocity-sensitive digressive valve settings are finely tuned for each specific application. The unique 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting allows for a clean and low-profile installation, increasing the vehicle’s durability and off-road capability.
- Caster Correction Kit: Lifting the vehicle by 2 inches can reduce caster, affecting handling. This kit includes offset bushings that restore proper caster alignment, ensuring the vehicle tracks correctly and maintains optimal handling characteristics.
- 31mm Wheel Spacers: Depending on your vehicle’s offset and tire size, these wheel spacers help avoid rubbing issues. Typically required for the front, many customers choose to install them on the rear wheels as well to maintain a balanced stance. The kit includes two sets (four spacers in total). If wheel spacers are not needed for your setup, they can be excluded from the total charge.
Optional Equipment:
- Fox Steering Stabilizer Shock: For those looking to further enhance their vehicle’s handling and stability, especially in off-road conditions, a Fox steering stabilizer shock can be added to the kit.
Key Features:
- Increased Ground Clearance: The 2-inch lift improves ground clearance, allowing for the use of up to 34-inch tires without issues.
- Enhanced Off-Road Performance: The Bilstein B8 5160 shocks and ARB springs provide better wheel travel, cooling capacity, and overall durability, making the vehicle more capable in harsh off-road environments.
- Improved Handling: The caster correction kit ensures that the vehicle maintains proper alignment and handling characteristics after the lift.
- Customizable Stance: The included wheel spacers can be used to adjust the vehicle’s stance, providing both functional and aesthetic benefits.
This 2-inch lift kit is tailored to fit a range of Mercedes G-class W463 models, ensuring a perfect fit and seamless integration with your vehicle’s existing systems.
