Ironman 4x4 Heavy Duty FoamCell Suspension Lift Kit +50mm – Mercedes-Benz G-Class Short Wheelbase (1979–2001)

Upgrade your Mercedes-Benz G-Class Short Wheelbase (1979–2001) with the Ironman 4x4 Heavy Duty FoamCell Suspension Lift Kit, engineered to deliver an approximate +50 mm lift over factory ride height. This kit is designed for intense off-road use while maintaining stability and control on the road.

Ironman 4x4 FoamCell shock absorbers feature increased oil capacity and foam cell technology to minimise aeration and manage heat far more effectively than gas shocks. The result is consistent damping, improved durability, and better control during sustained off-road driving, overlanding, or expedition use.
