Improved load carrying and towing ability.
Do you use your X-Class for load carrying and/or towing and finding it not up to the task as you hoped?
Then Pedders Suspension have the solutions for you.
The standard X-Class, as supplied, sits level when unladen, unlike most pick-ups which sit “nose down”. Combined with relatively soft suspension, carrying a meaningful load results in a very “tail down” stance, which as well as looking as though overloaded, also upsets the balance of the vehicle.
Pedders recognise this and have produced a range of load carrying kits to suit all uses from occasional load carrying to permanently heavily laden. Below is a list of the kits and the purpose they are best suited to. If you are still not which kit to choose, or have further questions, then please do get in touch with one of our team here at Pedders who will be able to assist youPedders Heavy Duty Load Carrying & Towing Kit (803262)
This kit uses an uprated rear spring, progressively wound to retain ride comfort, and approx. 30-35mm higher than standard. This kit is ideal for vehicles which are operated both unladen and moderately laden, without a canopy and tow bar. Ride comfort remains good in the unladen condition.Contents of Kit

Pedders Extra Heavy Duty Load Carrying & Towing Kit (803277)
