Hi,
I bought a Metris cargo a few weeks ago and I am researching lift kits as well. There is a German company that sells one Terranger.de and someone on this forum bought one. Look up lift and suspension. Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

i know i saw that thread but unfortunately he did't post any after installations comments so hard to tell if it's good or not especially since its not cheap. I'm sure we going to see more lift kits available as the time goes but I'm surprised that there is no more stuff even in europe but i guess its because over there vw t5/t6 is probably more popular so all the goodies are made for that.

 

Btw, I was able to fit 235/60R17 off road Cooper discoverers without any lift.

 

sounds good that means that 225/70r16 would work as well. do you have any pictures of your set up ?

 

I demand a photo!

 

Pic of my tires

Sorry I've been away, here is a pic of my Cooper discoverer AT tires. I'm still looking for a lift to be able to fit even bigger ones such as 245/70 R17 like the ones they used in the rally des gazelles.

 

just put a 225/65/17 BFG All Terrain on a factory wheel, possibly a bit to tall, def doesn't fit in the stock spare tire slot underneath. Going to try a 235/60/17 Cooper AT (slightly less aggressive side transition) tonight.

 

Hello - what tire set dd you end up with and what was your experience with them - steering, handling, road feel, mpg? Would you buy them again? Looking to do the same. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

 

I just received my TERRANGER lift kit and going to install next week, Ill let you know how it goes.

 

What did it end up costing with shipping? Thanks. Can't wait to see the photos.

 

Cool! Are you installing or having a shop do it?

 

Awesome, we just received some spacer's front spaccer, going to install 1-12mm spacer at each corner and see how it turns out.

 

Both 2016's w/ 235/60R17 Cooper AT3's, one with stock suspension and the other with a set of 2 Spaccer spring spacer's at each corner.

 

Did the 235/60/17 cooper AT rub when not lifted? Thanks

 

Lifts it an additional 1"

 

Here's a close up

 

Hi Ajetskiier, did you just changed the larger cooper tires on the OEM metris wheel rim and blacked it? looks pretty awesome and consider doing the same. How much lift did you gain with the larger 235/60R17 Cooper AT3's? thanks

 

Nice work - did you order the Spaccer's direct from them (their site is a bit difficult) and who did the install. If I do this, I would love to have someone who has already done it before....looks good!

 

Ordered from them directly, a friend did the install, rear easy, front not so much.

 

Cool - I'm only looking at the rears. 2 spacers on each corner - how thick each (or total)?

 

That lift looks radical!

 

Thanks for the photo comparison. That really makes me want a lift.

 

Each spacer is 12mm

 

Finally lifted it with the TERRANGER Kit. Installed with a friend took 4 hours and that included lunch.

 

Looks great. Thanks for posting pictures. What's you guess on increased vehicle height and how much more ground clearance? An inch or two, or more? Did you order from the manufacturer, how long did it take to get it, and what was the price with shipping? Cheers

 

What was the kit? I can't seem to find an english version of their site...

 

Ya what was the increase? What size are the new tires? Looks great!

 

TERRANGER Part number A-V2-102-10-002 (Vito W447 2wd kit)

 

I gained approximately 3" with lift and tires. I ordered direct from TERRANGER via Email that way I could translate from German to English, The way it works is you transfer money directly to their account (I used transferwise.com the fee was about $12) then it took about 4-5 weeks to get the shipment (you in the blind because the shipper has no tracking system in the US unless you want to pay about triple the amount for shipping UPS) In total the kit direct from Germany including shipping import and tax cost about $2K. The quality of the system is awesome and I was super impressed for a basic "mid size van" lift. My only concern is if one of the rear shocks blows out finding a comparable replacement in the US.

 

Thanks for all the info. Really like the way it looks. Any noticeable difference in handling? How does it do fully loaded?
