4″ Lift Kit Widebody Conversion for Mercedes G-class W463

If the portal axle conversion is more involved than what you had anticipated, we have a great alternative — a 4″ lift kit that allows you to run 35″ tires. With the 4″ lift kit, the geometry changes quite a bit, so you we need to account for changes in caster and the position of the axles.  Most customers are running a 35 x 12.5 (18″, 20″, 22″, or 24″), so wheel spacers are required in the front to avoid rubbing (customers space out the rear at the same time, even though it’s not required for clearance).  We have put together a “complete” 2-inch lift kit that will raise the vehicle, center the axles, and maintain the caster you need to keep the vehicle tracking properly at speed.

Note: To date, we have not had any issues with ABS or ESP with 35″ tires.

WIDEBODY FENDER FLARES:
Give your G-class a much wider stance with these DTD Widebody Fender Flares. These fiberglass fender flares are about 2″ wider per side than the G63 AMG Fender Flares, which are already wider than other W463 models. Please specify which front bumper you have when ordering (e.g., G500, G550, G55 AMG, or G63 AMG).

SHOCKS:
DTD-spec KING 2.5″ Adjustable Shocks with remote reservoir offer the best on and off-road performance. Many G63 owners install these shocks with no lift kit to get a much more compliant ride than stock.

CASTER CORRECTION:
DTD Radius Arms for 4″ Lift, Right/Left.  When lifting the vehicle 4″, you are twisting the axle from it’s center point, which reduces caster, which affects handling.  The Radius Arms correct the caster that was lost when the vehicle was raised, which translates to high speed safety, stability, and tracking.  Without the Radius Arms to correct caster, the vehicle will wander all over the road at speed, make it difficult (or even scary) to drive.

PANHARD BARS:
When lifting the vehicle, the axles may be moved off-center, which pushes the wheels out on one side of the vehicle.  These Adjustable Panhard Bars (aka Track Bars), also known as track bars, will allow you to re-center the front and rear axles.

WHEEL SPACERS:
Depending on offset and tire size, wheel spacers might be required to avoid rubbing.  If the spacers are necessary on your set up, you would only need them in the front, but most clients choose to space out the rear wheels at the same time.  Almost every customer needs them for clearance, but even if that’s not the case, you might want them to widen the stance.
