Abstract:
1. A vehicular suspension lift kit, comprising: a first component having first and second generally opposed sides, said first side having a first interlocking pattern having a first protrusion and a first recess, said first protrusion including a respective first protrusion outer surface that is contained in a first outer plane of said first side, wherein a first height of said first component is defined between said first outer plane and a second outer surface of said second side, said first recess defining a first protrusion wall extending from a first recess surface to said first outer plane, wherein said first interlocking pattern includes one or more of said protrusion walls; and a second component having first and second generally opposed sides and a second interlocking pattern having a second protrusion and a second recess, said second protrusion including a respective second protrusion outer surface that is contained in a second outer plane of said first side of said second component, a second height of said second component being defined between said second outer plane and said second side of said second component, said second recess defining a second protrusion wall extending from a second recess surface to said second outer plane wherein said second interlocking pattern is matingly engagable with said first interlocking pattern with said protrusion wall interacting with said second protrusion and said second protrusion wall interacting with said first protrusion to prevent relative motion among said first and second components along an interfacial plane parallel to said first and second outer planes, wherein a third height is defined between said second outer surface of said second side of said first component and said second side of said second component when said first and second interlocking patterns are matingly engaged with one another, a sum of said first and second heights being greater than said third height, at least one of said first and second components including a first guidepost that is of a configuration suitable for mating engagement with a first receptacle of another of said first and second components.
