Hi. You would have to get springs made to suit that height but I honestly feel that it would create too much angle for the driveshaft universal joints to turn through. If you are in
Sydney talk to Lovells Springs. Bob.

The Old Man Emu kit gives 40mm of lift with the camber adjustment built in to the replacement struts, once you decide to go any higher you need camber adjustment bolts as
well. I’m running two inch higher coils from Allsprings (
Sydney) and believe Toughdog do them as
well although going up a full two inch’s does result in a stiff ride unloaded whichever way your decide to go.

The OME kit gives the best
suspension for Vitaras. I have a set on my Grand Vitara 3 door and it is like night and day compared to my factory
suspension. It actually handles like a car around corners as oppossed to bouncing around them. ARB match
the springs and shocks together to give an excellent ride.
Toughdogs are designed for Cruisers and Patrols and hence give a very rough ride due to Vitaras being about 1/3 lighter. I know people who've tried Toughdogs and binned them in favour of OME.
OME is more expensive then Toughdog but it is money
well spent.
Usual disclaimer blah blah blah...
