Classic "loaf"

Many car owners are interested in the question of how to lift a UAZ “loaf”. Most of these cars come from the factory on 225/75 R16 or 235/70 R16 wheels. To avoid carrying out a body lift, you can choose to install tires on wheels with a radius of at least 15 inches and a height of 29 to 30 inches.

But the tires larger size they will no longer be able to fit here, so it will be necessary to carry out work to raise the body. If the idea of ​​creating an all-terrain vehicle from a “loaf” has stuck in your mind, then a body lift is inevitable.

How to lift a UAZ body

To do a UAZ 469 lift with your own hands, it is best to start with the body. To do this, you will need to prepare a set of nuts, bolts and washers, and 12 spacers. Now you can start lifting the body. You will need to remove the terminals from the battery and place supports under the wheels. In the area of ​​the starter, it is necessary to disconnect the ground.

Then you should unscrew the 12 nuts that connect the body and frame from the bolts. Now you can jack up the body to the height of the prepared spacers (while making sure that the equipment remains in place). After this, spacers are installed, which must be secured with bolts, lightly attaching them to the nuts. Now you can carefully and evenly lower the body into place, then tighten the nuts. The equipment is returned to its place, all tubes and wires are connected.

Most car owners, when lifting a UAZ “loaf” with their own hands, trim the wings and arch and install extensions. This is done so that dirt flying out from under the wheels does not fall on the glass.

The work is distinguished by its relative simplicity and the fact that the center of gravity of the machine practically does not rise. This allows you to maintain stability when the car turns or rolls. Lifting the body will help increase the distance from the frame by 4-8 cm.

UAZ elevator: characteristics, options

In order to increase the vehicle's cross-country ability, the right solution is to install wheels with a larger diameter. At the same time, the clearance increases. And what longer distance between the road and the bottom point of the car, the better the car's passing qualities.

In order to significantly increase the diameter of the wheels, modifications to the car will be required. Otherwise, the wheels either will not fit into the arches, or at the moment of turning and during certain irregularities they will cling to the body. To avoid these problems, it is necessary to lift the UAZ.

Lifting a UAZ involves a set of changes that must be made to the design of the vehicle in order to make it possible to install wheels of larger diameter. Many argue that a lift can increase a car's ground clearance. But this opinion is wrong. A clear understanding is necessary that increasing ground clearance is only possible by installing wheels of larger diameter, and the UAZ elevator is a help in this endeavor.

Set of stands for body lift “loaves”

The UAZ elevator can be of two options.

1. Bodylift. Possible for frame cars. In this case, the body is lifted above the frame using spacers. This is the simplest type of lifting. In this case, the car will not need further modifications.
2. Suspension lift. It is done both on frame cars (possibly combined with a body lift) and on frameless cars. In this case, longer springs or spacers are installed under the standard springs. The advantage of this method is that parts located underneath the car are lifted above the road. This results in a reduced risk of possible damage.

Lifting UAZ Patriot and Hunter

The standard ride ensures comfortable driving only on city roads. But a trip over rough terrain will be deprived of its attractiveness and comfort, since it can lead to breakdown of the main elements of the suspension and transmission. At the moment of a high-speed collision with even a minor obstacle, a breakdown of the suspension is possible. To avoid this, the UAZ Patriot needs a suspension lift. Most car owners recommend lifting the UAZ in any case, whether driving in urban conditions or outside the city.

Every car enthusiast associates a UAZ with an all-terrain vehicle that has significant power and maneuverability. It must be said that the UAZ Patriot is no exception, and the model has an attractive appearance and quite comfortable.

But you shouldn’t be surprised that the owners of this car are striving to improve its capabilities - install larger diameter wheels, modify the suspension travel. The UAZ Patriot configuration allows you to install wheels that are not very different from the standard ones. Before thinking about wheels, it is worth lifting the body and suspension of the UAZ Patriot.

The skillful hands of a master can always turn a UAZ Hunter into an SUV that will not see any obstacles in front of it. For many car owners, a UAZ Hunter lift with your own hands is not something incredible, so improving the vehicle’s cross-country ability will not pose any problems. Installing large-diameter wheels on the UAZ Hunter will give the vehicle additional lightness to overcome obstacles of various types. This result is achieved by increasing the ground clearance under the frame and axle. Lifting a UAZ can be done in two ways:

• raise the body above the wheels and free up as much space as possible for them;
• lower a little.

Do not forget that by improving the off-road qualities of a car, you can worsen its other characteristics. In particular, maximizing ground clearance causes the center of gravity to shift upward. There is a risk of tipping over if the side tilt is too strong. Sometimes, when carrying out a body lift, they somewhat loosen its attachment to the frame. In this case, the height of the elevator makes it possible to fall off the frame, which will lead to breakage of the high spacers, which have a large lever.

Hunter's lift with improved suspension

Yes, if you lift the UAZ, you can achieve improved geometric cross-country ability. This indicator is important when driving on uneven terrain. Undoubtedly, it is preferable to combine a suspension and body lift; this will allow many components to be preserved during operation.

You can install the UAZ elevator yourself. Even if this work is labor-intensive, it is not difficult, and the resulting result will allow the driver to be proud of himself and his iron friend.

The famous loaf quite often undergoes various upgrades, since it has significant potential for this, and also does not cost the owner that much. Tuning a UAZ 452 with your own hands is quite possible if you approach it responsibly and competently. This is exactly what we’ll talk about: we’ll learn a few tips that will help you do the right lifting.

Basics

Before we tell you how to lift a UAZ loaf, let’s understand that there are two types of car lifting (depending on exactly how the intervention in the car’s structure is carried out):

• body lifting;

The first option is more simple and at the same time much more secure. What does security have to do with it? The fact is that body lifting practically does not change the car’s center of gravity, so the loaf’s stable behavior when cornering or off-road is maintained.

As for the suspension lift, there is a certain risk due to the increase in the center of gravity, but this method significantly improves cross-country ability.

Let's talk about each of these methods in more detail.

Body lift

The UAZ loaf body lift is carried out using spacers that are located between the car frame and its body. When choosing specific spacers, please note that aluminum spacers are the most suitable for the price-quality ratio. They are durable and provide rigid attachment of the body to the frame, and are also available on the market in a fairly wide range. Note:

The vast majority of spacers that are produced by foreign companies are perfect for the UAZ 452.

When installing spacers, the owner of the loaf will in any case have to cut the arches and wings. After this is done, it is recommended to install side mudguards that will protect the glass from dirt.

There are various types of spacers, thanks to some of which the UAZ loaf frame moves away from the body by a distance of up to 80 mm. And in conjunction with big wheels it increases ground clearance by as much as 15 cm.

Suspension lift

The UAZ loaf lift, carried out by raising the suspension, as already mentioned, significantly increases the center of gravity of the car. Therefore, when choosing what height to raise the suspension, you need to consider:

• reasonable balance between increased maneuverability and serious rollover hazard;
• maximum oblique angle cardan shafts, above which they will lose their functionality.

The high risk of rollover can be eliminated by the following:

1. Initially, the track should be widened using wheel spacers;
2. next you need to install wide tires and discs with negative offset;
3. It would also not be superfluous to replace the bridges with the Bars or Spicer models.

Widening the track, among other things, can be achieved by installing disc brakes, and the problem with cardan shafts can be easily solved by installing extended shafts and a spacer between the cardan and axle flanges.

Methods for lifting suspension

There are several specific ways to raise the suspension. Each method depends on the final lifting height:

1. Easy lift

If the preferred height is small, then the UAZ loaf lift kit will consist only of additional sheets for springs. Instead, you can install other springs with a larger number of leaves, or you can install longer spring earrings.

2. Middle elevator and high elevator

When there is a need for lifting by 30 millimeters, you just need to install a gasket between the spring and the bridge, this is very effective. If this option does not suit you, then you can make spacers in the spring mounting brackets. These methods are good because they save everything original parts, and also allow you to independently lift to different heights.

Important: lifting must be done correctly, otherwise the suspension may become significantly stiffer.

Results

As you can see, it is quite possible to do a UAZ loaf lift: with your own hands or not, it is still possible. You just need to be able to correctly combine a body lift and a suspension lift. It would be great if they matched individual elements these two options. As a result, it will be possible to achieve a significant change in indicators.

According to the manufacturer, the main element of the domestic SUV UAZ Patriot should become off-road. In such conditions, the following qualities come to the fore:

• presence all-wheel drive, which allows you to move confidently on slippery and wet surfaces in any weather;
• increased ground clearance, facilitating the ability to overcome bumpy terrain.

The factory declared the ground clearance of the UAZ Patriot at 210 mm. This is a very impressive figure, however, domestic off-roading is capable of presenting such “surprises” where even the declared clearance becomes insufficient.

Nowadays, the concept of “elevator” is becoming especially popular among SUV owners. This means an increase in suspension.

Today we’ll look at the issues associated with doing the undercarriage lifting yourself, and also find out what’s included in the kit for this type of tuning.

Is it worth increasing the suspension?

For what purpose does the owner of a UAZ Patriot need an inflated arrangement of suspension units, we hope it is known. High-mounted chassis components help improve off-road performance. When the suspension components are raised, the risk of the units getting caught on road obstacles is reduced. In addition, after tuning and lifting measures are completed, the departure angles of the SUV increase, helping to preserve the bumpers. All these advantages are very valuable off-road, since the risk of “planting” the UAZ Patriot on the frame is minimized.

One of the main components of a do-it-yourself lifting event is lifting the frame above the transmission units. Here it is necessary to indicate the difference in actions, since in the front part transmission bridge suspended using springs, and in the stern suspension it is equipped with springs.

Suspension lifting methods

You can do a suspension lift in a UAZ Patriot with your own hands using one of three methods, namely:

1. By installing spacers between the elastic components of the chassis and the body.
2. Due to conversion to a pneumatic version of the suspension. This method involves attracting considerable financial resources and is accessible to moderately wealthy owners. The “disadvantage” of such a suspension is traditionally considered to be its short lifespan, especially since in difficult operating conditions the pneumatic parts will “live” even less than expected.
3. By replacing standard elastic suspension components with reinforced analogues with increased dimensions. Note that this method is more acceptable, since it eliminates the need for spacers. It also does not imply a subsequent loss of spring or spring strength.

Lift in the front suspension. How to do it?

Front chassis constantly exposed to increased loads. Here the heavy motor acts as an aggravating factor. Its weight reaches several hundred kilograms. In addition to this, fans of the body kit install equipment such as: a guard, a reinforced bumper, a winch, etc. As a result, the front suspension is “rewarded” with a large load, which can be partially compensated for by lifting measures.

A front suspension lift involves replacing the “original” springs with stiffer and longer analogues. Here it is recommended to take a closer look at the products “KYBRD 5081 +50mm” or “Toch Dag +50mm”.

In any option, the spring elements must have a reinforced design, which requires a rod thickness above 16 mm. We should not forget about the need to mount elongated products (+50 mm). It is not recommended to exceed the indicated increase in length, since the risk of increased loads on the bridge increases.

Replacing the springs yourself is not enough here. Let's pay attention to the shock absorbers, the length of which in the standard version is shorter than that required by the lifting. The conclusion is this: we replace the “original” shock absorbers with suitable analogues. We recommend taking a look at products from the Tociko brand, whose sizes vary from 345 to 570 mm.

Let's consider the option when the owner, in order to save money, aimed at installing spacers instead of installing the designated reinforced components. Here you will need to know such aspects as:

• the products are installed between the spring element and the body frame (their thickness does not exceed 30 mm);
• It is recommended to use spacers made of polyurethane.

When performing a front suspension lift, the owner of a UAZ Patriot will also need to perform the following actions:

• replace the hoses in the brake mechanisms with extended analogues;
• with significant lifting (“lift” of more than 100 mm), installation of transverse rods will be required;
• castor will need to be restored;
• Upon completion of the entire transformation complex, we adjust the camber.

UAZ rear suspension lifting

The stern chassis also needs a lift; there is a lift for the rear suspension. Here you will need to replace the standard springs with reinforced versions yourself. Note that native products consist of 3 sheets, and tuning ones already consist of 4. It is recommended to install polyurethane spacers under the new springs, as a result of which the ground clearance will increase by another 100 mm. Spacers, complete with standard springs, can provide an increase in clearance of 50 mm.

The photo shows what the elevator looks like after installing 4-leaf springs and a 60 mm cushion of spacers.

The result of the tuning will be visible not only from the street, but also from inside the SUV.

The rear suspension lift can be diversified by using longer earrings on the springs. Here we focus on the thickness of the sheet steel of the parts, since this indicator must be at least 30 mm.

A real help to the owners of the UAZ Patriot are the pre-formed lifting kits that are on sale. This simplifies the repair process and allows you to lift the rear suspension at home.

Lift kit for UAZ Patriot

A well-known manufacturer of such kits for the UAZ Patriot is the RIF company. Note that the set is very expensive, since the cost can exceed 50 thousand rubles.

The kit assumes compensation for the additional mass in full. Let us remind you that weight is added after the installation of accessories such as reinforced bumpers, sills, kangurin, winch, etc.

What's included? The set consists of the following parts:

• 4-leaf rear springs and stepladders;
• springs (+50 mm) and reinforced shock absorbers for the front suspension;
• reinforced shock absorbers for the stern chassis;
• earrings for rear springs.

All designated components of the kit have a design that allows them to be installed on the standard mounting points of the UAZ Patriot body. This greatly simplifies the installation procedure and does not require any modifications.

The only one significant drawback lifting kit, as it turned out, is its considerable cost. The price of a rear suspension lift and a front suspension lift are not much different.

Let's sum it up

In conclusion, we note that significant benefits from the lifting will be felt by those owners who very often operate their UAZ Patriot in off-road conditions. Thanks to this event, not only the cross-country ability of the SUV is improved, but the exterior is also favorably transformed, becoming more monumental.

We figured out the process of lifting the front and rear suspension on a UAZ Patriot SUV. But the lift does not end only at the suspension, so if you want to really tune the car and make it more passable, then you cannot do without the body lift procedure. What is it and how the body is lifted on a UAZ Patriot SUV, let’s try to understand the details.

A body lift is the process of raising the body above the frame vehicle. This process of raising is carried out in various ways, but the most acceptable is to install spacers.

For your information! On UAZ Patriot SUVs it is possible to carry out a simultaneous suspension lift and body lift. But it is not excluded to choose either only the first option or the second.

Bodylift allows you to increase the space in wheel arches, which will make it possible to replace standard wheels to more original ones. If the suspension lift lifts the UAZ Patriot SUV above the road, then the body lift allows you to increase the distance from the body to the ground. If the suspension on an SUV increases, then it changes accordingly geometric cross-country ability. The body lift does not affect this cross-country ability, which is actually one of the advantages.

Why do you need a body lift?

From the factory, the UAZ Patriot SUV is equipped with standard rims fifteenth diameter. At first glance, it would seem that this is enough for a jeep, but once you drive over rough terrain, you understand all the disadvantages of this car. Of course, the Patriot was designed from the factory to be used in off-road conditions, but to improve cross-country ability, the system as a whole will need to be reworked. But today we will pay attention to raising the body above the frame, which will, first of all, allow us to install larger diameter R16 or R17 wheels, as well as 33-inch wheels. For such wheels, it will be enough to raise the body by 60 mm by installing spacers. If you plan to do full tuning, so that others
envied and installed 35 inch wheels, then everything will be much more complicated. In such a situation, you cannot do without cutting metal, and you should be more careful with this. A 60 mm body lift of a UAZ Patriot SUV is done at home with your own hands and does not require any special skills. All you need is the help of a friend and necessary tool, but there are no problems with this.

So, we found out why a body lift is needed for the UAZ Patriot SUV, and now let’s figure out what is required to carry out this process?

What you need to have for installation

Before you start lifting the body, you need to purchase a special kit for the Patriot body lift. It should be noted right away that a body lift is much cheaper than raising the suspension. A body lift kit costs around 5-6 thousand rubles, which is affordable for the owners of such a jeep.

The kit includes special spacers made of caprolon, which are actually installed between the body and frame of the UAZ Patriot SUV. The body is connected to the frame using special coupling bolts, which are also included in the kit. The spacers are already sized accordingly and are specifically designed to withstand heavy loads.

It is possible to carry out a body lift using a homemade spacer or various objects, but you should approach this issue carefully. Below is an example of a homemade metal spacer.

Although many car owners neglect this statement and install steel spacers by welding them to the frame. Once the kit is ready for installation, you can begin the actual procedure for removing the fasteners.

Installing spacers

Before installing spacers, it is necessary to unscrew the fastenings of the body to the frame in order to lift in these places. First of all, the SUV is installed on a flat surface above the inspection hole, and supports are installed under the wheels. Under the hood on the right side we find a wire with a plug that powers the oxygen sensor. It should be turned off at the very beginning of the work, since its length will not be enough. We’ll look at how to connect it after the body lift procedure later. Let's begin the process of unscrewing the brackets:

Set of spacers for body lift

1. At the rear, the body is attached to the frame using two bolts located just behind the bumper. To remove them and install new ones, you will need to remove the carpet in the trunk.
2. The next two bolts are located under rear seats. To do this, lift the seats, find the bolts in the holes in the mat and unscrew them.
3. We move further and find two more bolts under the carpet at the feet of the driver and passenger.
4. Two more brackets are located in the front part under the radiator. To unscrew them, you need to unscrew all the fasteners from the radiator. There is no need to just remove supports and pipes.

After unscrewing the nuts of all body mounting bolts, there is no need to rush to remove them from the holes so that displacement does not occur.

So, now you can start preparing the holes for installing the new bolts from the body lift kit. These bolts have a diameter of 12 mm, and the standard hole is designed for 10 mm. Therefore, with a 12 mm drill, all the holes from which the standard bolts were removed are drilled. You should start with the front holes, so first raise the front of the SUV using two jacks. Lifting must be done synchronously to avoid displacement.

After raising the body to the required height, spacers are installed at the joints. Next, the bolts are installed, and only after that can the front part be lowered. Similarly rises rear end, and spacers are installed. Spacers are installed from the beginning, that is, the products are mounted at the junction of the frame and the body under the feet of the driver and passenger, then under the rear seats and finally in the trunk.

After the spacers in front under the feet of the driver and passenger have been installed, it is necessary to gradually lower the body, controlling the direction of the bolts. In such a situation, it is recommended to work with a friend to avoid mistakes. All spacers are installed sequentially. After this, all that remains is to screw the nuts on the bolts, and the process of raising the body is completed.

Final work

The lifted UAZ Patriot SUV has some deviations after installing 6 cm spacers. They must be eliminated immediately. After performing a body lift, you yourself will understand what these deviations are, but we will consider this point right away.

• Gear shift lever. So, first of all, it will rest against the floor, making it impossible to engage reverse and fifth gears. The problem can be solved by digesting the lever or cutting off a section of the body that interferes with the movement of the handle.
• Viscous coupling and casing. If the viscous coupling on the SUV was not replaced with electric fans, then some alterations will be required. The viscous coupling along with the engine remained at the bottom of the body, and the casing that covers the fan is attached to the radiator. To keep the blades from touching the casing, you will need to secure it with added plates.
• Oxygen sensor. At the beginning of the body lift installation, we turned off the oxygen sensor. Now it needs to be connected to the plug. To do this, you need to dismantle the corner junction of the wire and tighten it. This way the sensor is connected. The photo below shows what should happen.
• Rear and front bumper. The bumpers also need to be reworked, since after the body lift was carried out, these products remained 6 cm lower. To remove the resulting gap between the bumper and the body, it is necessary to mount the front and rear bumpers redo. The fasteners are cut from the frame and welded to a height of 6 cm.

That's all the elements that need processing. At this stage, the body lift of the body on the UAZ Patriot is completed. Now you can install new wheels of size 33 and go for the first tests.

At this stage, we can sum it up and say that a lifted SUV looks much cooler. Now everyone car on the road it will be in full view, and overcoming obstacles off-road will result not in a test, but in pleasure.

You can check your BMR and if you need to reduce it!

The UAZ Patriot SUV is designed primarily to overcome not only road surfaces, but also off-road conditions. Operating a vehicle over rough terrain requires not only all-wheel drive, but also high ground clearance, which will increase the vehicle's cross-country ability. The manufacturing plant reports that the standard ground clearance of the UAZ Patriot SUV is 21 cm. This is quite a lot, but as practice shows, even this distance from the bottom point to the ground is sometimes not enough. Today the term lift or suspension increase is gaining popularity. Today we will look at why this needs to be done, the features of the front and rear suspension lift, as well as what is included in the tuning kit.

Why a high suspension is needed is actually clear - to improve the Patriot’s cross-country ability in harsh off-road conditions. In addition, by raising the suspension, there is less chance of vehicle parts coming into contact with various obstacles. Lifting or tuning the suspension helps to improve the “approach and departure angles,” which contributes to less interference with various thresholds, steps and other types of obstacles. The suspension lift also helps improve the ramp angle, which means that when driving over hills or sand there will be less chance of the SUV landing on its belly.

But to do this, you can simply replace wheels with a larger diameter? Of course, replacing the wheels with a diameter of R16 or even larger is possible, but it’s just worth considering that the gear ratio will change. And for alignment gear ratios Replacement of axle gearboxes and alteration will be required transfer case. It is possible to do all this, but you just have to take into account the considerable cost of all materials.

Therefore, if it were not for another drawback of the UAZ Patriot SUV, which we will now consider, then we could simply replace the wheels and raise the body. But this will not solve the problem, which is a weak suspension. When loading a machine weighing more than 500 kg, problems arise with the springs - they begin to bend and break. Therefore, tuning the body suspension allows you to compensate for the sagging of the car under load.

Replacing standard wheels with others with a larger diameter, remaking the transfer case, replacing the main pairs in the axles, as well as raising the body and suspension - all this, in a word, is called a lift or tuning. But today we will pay attention to the suspension lift, since this is the simplest and optimal way to increase ground clearance and thereby make an SUV more passable without unnecessary costs.

A suspension lift involves raising the frame above the axles. But since front axle Since the UAZ Patriot SUV has springs, and the rear one has springs, the methods of increasing the suspension are correspondingly different.

Suspension lift methods

There are three ways to perform a suspension lift on a UAZ Patriot SUV:

1. Place spacers under the elastic elements. To do this, special spacers are placed under the springs and springs to raise the suspension.
2. But this option is acceptable for those who have considerable finances. In addition, the air suspension will not last long if the SUV is used harshly over rough terrain.
3. Replacement of standard elastic elements with reinforced and enlarged ones. This option is more acceptable, since there is no need to add spacers, thereby compromising the strength of springs and springs.

Front suspension lift features

The front suspension also experiences considerable weight loads. Firstly, this is an engine, the weight of which reaches almost one ton. Besides this, fans powerful cars equip an SUV reinforced bumper, a cage and a winch, the weight of which can reach 100 kg or more. The result is a decent load on the front suspension, which needs to be compensated with the help of a lift. The UAZ Patriot front suspension lift involves replacing the standard springs with hard ones. To do this, it is recommended to opt for KYBRD 5081 +50mm. There are a sufficient number of analogues, so you can choose any product. For example, springs from Toch Dag +50mm. To increase the suspension, it is necessary to purchase reinforced springs, the rod thickness of which must be at least 16 mm. And, of course, do not forget about the length, but installing springs above +50 mm is not recommended, as the load on the bridge will increase.

But replacing the springs is not enough, because the length of the standard production shock absorbers leaves much to be desired. After installing reinforced suspension elements, the travel of the standard shock absorbers will not be enough. Therefore, tuning the front suspension on the UAZ Patriot also involves installing new shock absorbers. To do this, you can use Tociko model products, the dimensions of which are 34.5 -57 cm.

Spring spacer

If you still decide to go the first route and choose to install spacers to save money, then you should know:

• Spacers must be installed between the spring and the body, no more than 3 cm;
• Use special spacers made of polyurethane;
• You need to make sure the design is reliable.

Thus, when lifting or tuning the front suspension, do not forget about the following points:

1. Replace the brake hoses with longer ones.
2. If the lift was significant (over 10 cm), then the installation of transverse rods will be required.
3. Castor restoration.
4. After all the alterations it is necessary.

Rear suspension lift features

The rear suspension also requires lifting, which is carried out by replacing the standard springs, consisting of three leaves, with four-leaf ones. You can install polyurethane spacers under the springs, which will raise the car by 5 cm. If you install springs with four leaves, and in addition install spacers, then the car will rise up to 10 cm.

We will not consider the process of replacing springs, as you can learn about this from the article. Four-leaf springs are installed on the rear suspension and, in addition to them, 6 cm spacers are mounted on the frame. The photo below shows how the lift will look after installing springs with 4 leaves and a 6 cm polyurethane cushion.

Such tuning of an SUV will be noticeable not only from the outside, but also from inside the cabin. Tuning the rear suspension is also achieved through the use of elongated earrings on the springs. In this case, pay attention to the thickness of the steel of the spring sheets, because it must be at least 3 mm.

In order not to collect materials in parts, it is already available for sale ready set for the suspension lift of the UAZ Patriot SUV. This kit allows you to tune the suspension at home. Let's look at what the kit is.

Elevator kit

A lot of kits are being produced that allow for suspension tuning and lifting. well-known company REEF. First of all, it should be noted that this kit is not a cheap pleasure, since its price is over 50 thousand rubles.

This kit provides full compensation for the weight of equipment installed on the car: sills, bumpers, winches, etc. What's included in the kit?

So, the kit that allows you to tune the UAZ Patriot suspension consists of:

• Four-leaf rear springs.
• Spring ladder.
• Front springs +50 mm.
• Spring bushings.
• Reinforced rear shock absorbers.
• Reinforced front shock absorbers.
• Rear spring earrings.

Set from RIF company

This kit, which allows you to tune the front and rear suspension, fits standard mounts, so there is no need to invent or drill new holes on the fly. The only downside this kit comes with is the cost. But those who have experienced the miraculous effect of such tuning themselves remain satisfied. It should be noted that such tuning of the UAZ Patriot car will not only improve the vehicle’s cross-country ability, but will also change the appearance of the car for the better.
