PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Adrenaline HQ / Agile Offroad Ride Improvement Package (RIP Kit) Installation Service

Upgrade your van’s suspension. Get comfort, control & capability.

Overview

Turn your van into a more confident, capable rig with the Ride Improvement Package (RIP Kit) — a fully engineered suspension upgrade that transforms how your vehicle handles under load, on pavement, and off-road. Unlike a simple lift kit, our RIP Kit focuses on ride quality, stability, and predictable performance—day in and day out.

With components tuned around your van’s weight, driving style, and intended terrain, the RIP Kit smooths out potholes, sharpens cornering, tames body roll, and delivers confidence whether you're loaded for adventure or cruising the highway.


Why Choose the RIP Kit?

  • Superior Ride Comfort & Smoothness – Customized shock tuning and matched springs reduce harsh impacts and unwanted bounce.

  • Optimized Handling & Control – Less body lean, improved front-to-rear balance, and better damping under braking.

  • Tailored for Your Load – Rear leaf springs are selected based on your van’s actual rear axle weight for precise support.

  • More Suspension Travel & Clearance – Gain usable ground clearance while maintaining chassis geometry.

  • Bolt-On & No Fabrication – Designed to use factory mounting points—no cutting, welding, or major modifications required.

  • Built for Real World Durability – Reinforced brackets, premium shocks, and tested hardware ensure long-term reliability.


Core Components (Examples)

Depending on your van (2WD, 4WD/AWD, model year, axle weight), the RIP Kit typically includes:

  • Front Coilover / Coil Assist Kit — Replaces or augments factory front springs to control dive and soften the ride.

  • FOX Shock Absorbers (Rear & Auxiliary Front) — Tuned for your van’s dynamics, often using the FOX 2.0 or 2.5 Performance Series.

  • Bilstein B6 Front Struts (in higher level kits) — Improves steering precision and front-end control.

  • Custom-Rate Leaf Springs — Matched to your rear axle load for stability under payloads.

  • Upper & Lower Shear Brackets (in Pro / Race versions) — Reinforce rear shock mounts under extreme loads.

  • Full Hardware Kit — U-bolts, spacers, brake line covers, installation brackets, and more.

  • Wheel Spacers / Stud Conversions — To ensure shock and tire clearance where needed.


How It Works

  1. Weigh Your Rear Axle – To choose the correct spring pack, you’ll need your van’s actual rear load (e.g. at a truck scale).

  2. Select Your Kit Tier – We offer multiple levels (Standard, Premium, Pro, Race, Performance Elite) to match budget and performance goals.

  3. Bolt-On Installation – The RIP Kit follows factory geometry, with all parts bolting into place.

  4. Enjoy Balanced Performance – Whether you’re loaded with gear, towing, or light for the road, the suspension adjusts to your dynamic weight and terrain.
