I am doing some calculations in order to spec my suspension kit and I measured the static SAG with the OEM suspension.

Front axle - 10cm static SAG
- extended 45.5cm
- static loaded 35.5cm

Rear axle - 11cm static SAG
- extended 45.5cm
- static loaded 34.5cm

Considering the front shocks have 18cm of travel, 10cm of static SAG is at least tragic.
I am not sure what is the travel of the rear shocks but also here 11cm is massive.

Have your measured the static SAG with the aftermarket suspension that you are running ?
If yes, can you please share the values, the suspension make/type and the specs of the springs ?

And here are the details of the OEM suspension.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ground clearance on the front jack support point : 11.5cm
Ground clearance on the rear jack support point : 13.5cm

Front wheel center to arch distance (static load) : 35cm
Front wheel center to arch distance (suspension fully extended) : 45.5cm

Rear wheel center to arch distance (static load) : 34.5cm
Rear wheel center to arch distance (suspension fully extended) : 45cm

Front suspension static compression :10.5cm // from overall travel 18cm
Rear suspension static compression : 11.5cm // from overall travel 18cm
