2″ Lift Kit for Mercedes G-class W463 with OME Shocks
Transform your Mercedes G-class W463 with our comprehensive 2″ lift kit, designed for enhanced off-road performance and a more rugged appearance. This kit includes ARB Springs and OME Shocks, and addresses common handling and alignment issues experienced with basic lift kits. Here’s what you get:
Kit Components
Springs
- ARB Springs: These springs provide a 50mm lift, improving ground clearance and suspension travel for a more capable off-road experience.
Shock Upgrade – Stage 1
- OME Shocks: Replace your factory shocks with Old Man Emu (OME) Shocks, paired with ARB 50mm Lift Springs for a smoother and more controlled ride over various terrains.
Caster Correction Kit
- Caster Correction: Lifting the vehicle 2″ twists the axle from its center point, reducing caster and affecting handling. The caster correction kit includes offset bushings that restore proper caster alignment, ensuring the vehicle tracks correctly at speed.
Wheel Spacers
- Wheel Spacers: Depending on the offset and tire size, wheel spacers might be required to prevent rubbing. Typically, spacers are needed in the front, but most customers opt to space out the rear wheels as well for a more balanced stance. This helps accommodate larger tires, such as 33 x 12.5 R20, without clearance issues.
Key Benefits
- Improved Off-Road Capability: With a 50mm lift, your G-class W463 gains better ground clearance and suspension travel, allowing you to tackle rougher terrains with confidence.
- Enhanced Ride Quality: The combination of ARB Springs and OME Shocks offers a more compliant and comfortable ride, reducing the impact of bumps and uneven surfaces.
- Corrected Handling: The caster correction kit ensures your vehicle maintains proper alignment and handling characteristics, even after lifting.
- Accommodates Larger Tires: The inclusion of wheel spacers allows for the fitment of larger tires without rubbing, giving your vehicle a more aggressive stance and improved off-road traction.
