That diff looks way out of angle, looks like one side is sitting higher than the other, by the way you don't need drop brackets unless your going 2 5" or over, not that it hurts using them on a 2" lift but not necessary

Has somebody fitted uprated springs previously, IE Grand Vitara ??
Looks very much like this http://www.shropshire-suzuki.co.uk/foru ... =13&t=8528

That's better mate, never thought there would be that much of a angle especially after you used droppers

Glad you sorted it, ill remember this for future reference, I never had this problem when I lifted my old Vitara but when I lift my new one I may well come across this problem!

I think my inner cv on the long can had collapsed.but was fine when off so could just have been that the can was to long so couldn't angle as smoothly.im happy with it no clicking and turns fine.hooe this may help others to come.
