An aftermarket modification designed to increase the ride height and ground clearance of a specific model year pickup truck. It typically involves replacing or augmenting the vehicle’s suspension components, such as shocks, springs, and control arms. An example involves upgrading a truck’s suspension to accommodate larger tires and improve off-road capabilities.
The installation of such a system can enhance a vehicle’s aesthetic appeal, providing a more aggressive and imposing stance. Furthermore, it can offer practical advantages in challenging terrains by allowing the vehicle to navigate obstacles more easily and reducing the risk of undercarriage damage. Historically, these modifications have been popular among off-road enthusiasts and those seeking to customize their vehicles.
