Suspension Lift Kit Installation
Why is my 4WD so low when it comes out of the factory?
You’re committed to adding a bit more clearance to your vehicle, but why is your 4WD so low to the ground in the first place? To put it simply, manufacturers build their cars with two things in mind, cost efficiency and part longevity. To achieve this, they look to create mechanical systems that are uniform across the entire vehicle.
Deliberately setting your vehicle low puts less pressure on the components within your car and causes them to wear out less quickly.
So why would I want to lift my 4WD if it’s going to wear it out faster?
That’s where a suspension lift kit comes in. This acts as both the problem and the cure for your 4WD. It raises the vehicle which would normally cause more wear, if not for the differential created by the suspension lift. The differential offsets the pressure created by the change in height and voila! Your 4WD sits higher with no additional wear.
Fitting a suspension lift kit is always a breeze at AVR Automotive. Source your own or let us supply one for you at no extra cost and then install it quickly and easily. We choose our lift kits based on three factors, quality, performance and affordability. Once your kit is fitted, you’re ready to enjoy your next 4WD getaway.
What are the benefits of installing a suspension lift kit for your 4WD?
01
A lift kit does exactly what it says on the tin. It lifts your car up further from the ground. This is particularly helpful when travelling through slightly dense scrub or bodies of water.
02
A lift kit makes ascending and descending rocky or muddy terrain a breeze. With a more rounded articulation, the ride of your 4WD feels more comfortable even on the most unstable ground.
03
A lift kit makes fitting bigger tyres easier. Although these tyres won’t necessarily increase performance on regular ground, it opens up the possibility of travelling across more treacherous terrain such as sand or snow.
04
A lift kit makes working on your 4WD in the field far easier. Higher clearance means more access to the underbelly of your vehicle without the need of a jack, so you can perform field repairs on the fly.
If you don’t know the right suspension lift for your 4WD, the highly trained technicians at AVR automotive are here to help. We will go over the options available to you, and help you to decide. Then we’ll install the perfect kit without compromising your safety.

I took my partner’s car their for a service. Wow, how professional are they. Presentation of staff & reception was first class. Friendly & efficient. The car was ready at the time they anticipated. When I picked up the car, they explained everything they did & showed me photos of parts they replaced (before & after photos to show wearing). When I went into the car to drive off, their was a bag of lollies with their business logo on the bag. What a nice touch. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone. They take pride in your car.

A fantastic service, I needed a pick up and drop off of an urgent repair job and they were more than accommodating and matched it with great work.

Simply fantastic! Paul, Dave and the team at ARV are professional, honest and are more interested in providing customer service than making as much money as they can out of you. I have been going there for some time now, after our previous mechanic moved interstate. We are very particular with our vehicles, and they are just as particular with them when working on them. They have an amazing up to date, and very clean work shop, and we couldn't recommend them enough. Well done on creating a fantastic local business.

I've been shopping around for someone to service my car since my last mechanic sold up a few years ago. I wanted someone, thorough so I can have peace of mind. With A.V.R Automotive, I have found a small business that cares more about the condition of my car than I do... They seemed to want to care for my vehicle as if it was their own. Can't fault that!

My daughter took her car which other places couldn't do the job. The owner seemed very knowledgeable and the staff members were very friendly. We are very happy with them.

We have used AVR Automotive multiple times with excellent results. We appreciate their service and how transparent the repairs on our vehicle are. They found a fault in our car and were able to show photo's and describe the issue with our vehicle exceptionally well.

I met Paul and his Team over 10 years ago. Needed a super reliable and honest mechanic who could service several rep vehicles, as well as personal vehicles. Workmanship, time frames and overall cost has been excellent. I moved 45 min away from the area 4 years ago and still could not imagine taking my vehicles anywhere else.... Super loyal to Paul and his Team... I highly recommend stopping in and checking out AVR for yourself!

Service and waiting area is great! David is also great to deal with, thank you! Complimenty drink while waiting and a sneaky pack of lollies in the car waiting for you afterwards.Prices are a bit steep when compared to your common workshop but it is a quality workshop. Thank you.

Wow. AVR are a great example of amazing customer focus. After a long history of servicing through VW (mostly unsatisfied) I am happy to say that i am now converted to a local mechanic. The guys at AVR have earned my trust. They treated me like I was a king, did an amazing job and the pricing was almost 50% cheaper than VW. A well deserved 5.

I purchased a vehicle whilst in Brisbane for the school holidays and realised it needed a lot of work done to it. AVR worked in with my tight schedule to complete what turned into a mammoth job, ensuring my children and I were able to travel the 800km home safely towing our camper. Can't rate the team highly enough for thorough and professional work.

Fantastic service, would recommend without hesitation. Thoroughly inspected my 4wd vehicle before a major (and long overdue) service to identify everything that was required to be done. Then called me in to explain what should be done, and what other work could be deferred. As a result, I'll trade up - but my next vehicle will be going there for servicing and upgrades. Thank you to Paul, Dave and the team.

After finding AVR Automotive on the internet and phoning first, I was able to book my 1996 Toyota Starlet in for a very urgent wheel bearing replacement at short notice. Was so grateful for their very prompt accommodating service. It was my first visit to a mechanic in very many years (why I left it too long) and the nerves were horrendous, but Paul’s excellent communication skills, expertise, patience and respectfulness soon reassured me, as did the huge, clean, organised, spacious, extraordinarily well equipped and busy workshop and smiling friendly staff.Similarly the clean, tidy, well equipped and very comfortable waiting room showed a respect and thoughtfulness for their customers, even with access to the remote control to change the channel on the TV and a free coffee coupon for the delightful coffee shop over the road. The work was done so quickly and the warranty on the work gives me confidence of a job well done.When I got back to the car, I found it had also been cleaned and vacuumed! The very loud left side rear end whining noise is gone (no it wasn’t a mother-in-law), and I know what I am up for in the future.You really do get what you pay for. Thank you so much to the Team at AVR Automotive.

Great and friendly team! Looked after use with a smile and even put aside replaced parts to show us. Our VW would of cost twice as much at dealer repair shop. Even scored a courtesy car. We will be back! 👍

Exceptional service.Can’t say enough good things about this place. I chose to check out AVR after reading the glowing reviews and I wasn’t disappointed. It is everything the reviews have said and more. Friendly and very professional staff, clean workshop and waiting room. The work carried out on my car was exceptionally well done and documented. They even emailed me during the day with detailed photos and notes of other issues they found, along with a quote to correct them if I wished to go ahead with the work. My 12-year-old car now feels and drives like it did 10 years ago. Previously I had been going to the dealer network, never again; I will remain a customer of AVR. Thank you guys and keep up the great work.

We were recommended here by a friend who had been coming here for years and after our service can see exactly why they have been trusted with our friends cars for so long. Everything was explained in layman's terms, we were given options to rectify things that could be an issue moving forward without being told that it was 100% necessary like other services we have had in the past, and the price was more than competitive. Our thanks to Dave and the team!

I have been taking my car to A.V.R. Automotive for 5 years and get a thorough service every time.They do great customer service, very reliable work and experienced mechanics that keeps my car running and performing well without any problems. My car is at a stage where it needs parts replaced, but I have been given an honest review on what needs to be done including a free quote and plenty of conversations that makes all the difference and shows how Paul and his team are dedicated to the work they do and to the benefit of their customers.
