Leaf Springs
Raptor 4x4 Front Leaf Springs +2" (50 mm) Suzuki Samurai – Pair
A pair of Raptor 4x4 front leaf springs for the Suzuki Samurai, giving a 2" (50 mm) lift. Powder-coated steel packs supplied for the complete front axle, so both sides work with identical characteristics. Bushings are not included and can be ordered separately in rubber or polyurethane.
Raptor 4x4 Front Leaf Springs +2" (50 mm) Suzuki Samurai – Pair
Tired front leaf packs are easy to spot on a Samurai: the nose sits low, the spring has flattened out, and every decent bump ends on the bump stop. What you lose is not ride height alone – it is the usable travel that matters most once the tarmac ends.
This pair fixes both at once. You get fresh front leaf packs that restore the spring rate and lift the front axle by two inches, roughly 50 mm. Both sides ship together, so there is no mixing of old and new packs and no lopsided stance afterwards.
Fitment Suzuki Samurai, front axle | Lift +2" / 50 mm | Supplied as 2 springs (pair) |
Key benefits
- 50 mm of lift – more clearance under the front axle and room in the arch for taller tyres.
- Powder-coated steel leaves – a tougher finish than plain paint on a part that lives in mud, grit and road salt.
- Supplied as a pair – identical rate on both sides, so the body sits level once the job is done.
- Brand-new packs – no guessing about the history of second-hand leaves you would otherwise re-arch.
What is included
- 2 Raptor 4x4 front leaf springs (complete axle set)
Bushings are not part of the kit. Since the axle comes apart anyway, fitting fresh rubber or polyurethane bushes at the same time is the sensible move – both types are available separately.

Who it is for
Aimed at Samurai owners who use the car off-road and want to step up in tyre size without rebuilding the whole suspension. It also makes sense during a restoration: if the front end is coming apart regardless, fitting lifted packs costs the same labour as returning the car to stock and leaves you far more room to work with later.
Fitting notes
Plan for the car to be safely supported, the shocks disconnected and the spring hangers freed – on an older Samurai those seized fasteners are usually the slow part of the job. Budget for a full set of new bushings and check your dampers: with 50 mm of extra height the original units can end up working at the limit of their stroke.
Why choose this set
- A stated, verified lift figure of 50 mm rather than a vague estimate.
- Complete axle set in one purchase, no hunting for a matching second spring.
- Part of the wider Raptor 4x4 Suzuki range, so the rest of the suspension is easy to match.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many springs are supplied?
Two – a complete front axle set. The price covers the pair.
Are bushings included?
No. The set contains the leaf springs only. Rubber and polyurethane bushings are available separately.
How much lift do they give?
Two inches, or roughly 50 mm. The manufacturer quotes the same figure as a 5 cm lift.
Can they be used on the rear axle?
No, these are front packs. The matching rear set with the same lift is part number RAP-06146.
What is the corrosion protection?
The leaves are powder coated, which holds up better than ordinary paint on a component permanently exposed to mud and road salt.
