Front Right Shock Absorber Lift 4-7 cm Suzuki Vitara - Raptor 4x4
A Raptor 4x4 heavy duty front shock absorber for the right hand side of a Suzuki Vitara, designed for vehicles with a 4-7 cm lift. A stock damper on a lifted car works outside its intended range; this one is sized for the new ride height. The price covers a single unit.
Front Right Shock Absorber Lift 4-7 cm Suzuki Vitara - Raptor 4x4 (RAP-09151)
Once lift springs go in, the standard damper starts working at the end of its travel and can top out on every serious bump. That is the shortest route to destroying a fresh suspension component within a handful of trips.
Raptor 4x4 assigns this shock absorber directly to vehicles with a 4-7 cm lift, and to the right hand side of the front axle on a 1989-1998 Vitara.
Vehicle Suzuki Vitara 1989-1998 | Position front, right hand side | Lift range 4-7 cm | Quantity 1 pc |
Key benefits
- Length matched to a 4-7 cm lift, so the damper works within its travel instead of against the stops.
- Heavy duty construction intended for a lifted off-road vehicle.
- Side specific, so there is no guesswork - the left front has its own part number, RAP-09152.
- Sold individually, so you can replace a single unit or build up the whole axle.
- From the same catalogue as the Raptor 4x4 Vitara lift springs, so the components are matched to each other.

Buy it when your Vitara already runs a lift in this range or when you are planning one, alongside the +40 mm (RAP-09143A) or +7 cm springs. It also makes sense as a replacement for a worn damper on a car that has been lifted for years.
Fitting notes
- Shock absorbers are replaced in pairs per axle - the left front is RAP-09152.
- For the rear in the same lift range the manufacturer specifies RAP-09153.
Why buy this one
- A damper designed for a defined lift range, not a stock unit stretched onto a raised car.
- Clear side assignment, so there is less chance of ordering the wrong part.
- Bought singly, so you pay only for what you actually need.
If you are doing the whole front axle, order it together with the left hand RAP-09152 - replacing both at once is standard practice for this job.
