Endeavor Lift Kit?
 
Hey I was wondering if anybody knows of a place/website where I could buy an Endeavor lift kit? I want to start driving off road and really liked my friends lifted jeep.

there are a hundred things you want for offroad driving. a lift kit is somewhere down the line.

Do you know where I could buy a lift kit for the endeavor?

why?

i assume you're going to do a body lift, which means you're going to need bigger wheels and tyres to get any benefit from it. and bigger suspension to hang on. it's not a cheap or easy process. just because "you liked your mate's lifted wagon"
perhaps offer to buy it off him/her.

otherwise, if you're *actually* serious about 4WDing, find a local club and they'll tell you everything you need to know, hell, might even have some second hand gear or club discounts for you.

otherotherwise there's this little known website, called google, i'm sure they can help you find local suppliers.

hang on. no. do not go to a 4wd club. they will laugh at you.

what you have is an SUV. they're not actually designed for 4WDing. they're designed for yuppies because it gives them a false sense of safety and compensates for their small........

Dont think you can lift them. Certainly not a body lift as someone assumed you were wanting since it has a unibody frame. Besides, lifting a vehicle has trade offs, yea you get more clearance however your mechanical efficiency -power transfer to the axles - is reduced... ie it is inversely proportional to how high you go, higher lift = lowered efficiency. Its related to driveshaft angle. CV joints are wondrous at maintaining efficiency and a constant shaft velocity verses the old U-joints, however, these have angular limits too and as angle increases so does wear. You prob already knew all of this from the name, Constant Velocity -joint, but thought i'd mention it anyway.
