this car is really a very light SUV. and is harsh running, my JK jeep is too. and has springs but its not a car. it is for going fast off road and not bottoming out.

drive a blazer, see what weight does.?
the best solution is progressive springs.( on pavement)

but this light car , beats any blazer off road, weight is a killer there.
those air shocks are for overloaded cars. or trucks.

they do not make the ride better like KONE racing shocks ,where you adjust the compression damp rates and rebound valves. and are very expensive parts.....
the struts are not adjustable at all.
adding shock springs or air springs (?) , makes it harsher , unloaded.

most the progressive springs, sold are to turn the car into a silly low rider, (most want opposite off road)

the doors are so thin, i think I can rip them off by hand, even straightened one door by hand that was bent. its a kite. for sure, and in buffeting winds, its dangerous driven fast , flat sides, and flat windshied are all bad, on the road. fast. and high CG.


B&G makes them. but are all DROP springs off shelf., the owner says call him, if just prog. need. (higher , lower softer, tell him what you want)
See OLD MAN EMU ( see what the do, and if it dont lower the sidekick)

Pxxx tries are passenger tires. the P means soft and weak. soft side walls flex more and suck up more HARSH.

check out other cars that weight just 2000 , 2door. darn few. its a very light car.

but off road, omg, what a animal.
