  • Not a professional install but doable if you take your time. Don't forget to get your car aligned. Special thanks to my buddy Gavin for all the help!
    Here is the 2" from Amazon amzn.to/3By3qU3
    You might also need the shock extensions, or you can get the kits directly from Truxxx.com as seen below.

    Put a 2" lift from these guys (TRUXXX) on my 2023 Hyundai Kona SE. Not too hard to put on just the struts are always a hassle by themselves to get off and on. I put on larger all terrain tires and went a hair too big, so out came the sledge to the inside fender well & spray undercoat to stop the tires from rubbing ... now it's time plastidip to black out the wheels

    They are called Nivomat self leveling, Volvo and Saab have been using them for years. Its just filled with hydraulic oil once you start driving it will adjust itself.

    • @directsound
      @directsound  Рік тому

      Yep and I even said that in the video. I moved it to the top but put it in upside-down as well and bent the link. So got new links and extensions and did it right this time by placing the extensions facing up. Hyundai wants $133 for a new link arm but I found 2 on ebay for about $40 and replaced them both. Wow that is the hardest part of the install tighten the sway bar when the car is on the ground. Thanks for the comment! 🌴🤙

    Hi Mike good job i have a 2021 SEL i was thinking of doing that to mine plus all terrain tires. i have a question actually 2 maybe you can answer them lol first one is do you notice a vibration in the flood or gas pedal when going over bumps from the right side?? And second what do you think about no U joints on this truck do u think its tuff enough to handle off road?? thanks

    • @directsound

      I have felt a little have at very low speed on Acceleration but only every once in a while. This happen even before the lift. I took it in and they didn't find anything wrong 🙃

    Looks great! I’ve got a 22 limited AWD with the tow package & I’m considering doing the Truxxx 306016 kit which is 2” front, 2.25” rear but there isn’t too much info on that kit as most people do the 306015 2” front & rear kit. I want the rear to be just slightly higher than the front but not too much higher. Did the 2.5” kit raise it evenly or did the rear go slightly higher than the front?

      I will just as soon as I wear the stock tires out. I know what tire I want its just going to be a bit longer to get some new tires. I think I have 25000 on the sock ones now and the new tires will give me another 1.5" ground clearance 🌴🤙
