Have put them in SJs to big and too heavy and you cant mod the sump as the oil pump sits in the way we used to have to run SPOA to get clearance with +2 springs nearly 6 inches of lift :woohoo:

ldv pilot. tomorrow will be matchin clutches up. possibly the ldv clutch.

the jimny is not used during the week so top end speed isnt an issue.

is all a trial and error thing really. if it dont work all iv wasted is my time and £300 .

im going to put merc springs on the front to stiffen it up and swap front to rear on jimny springs untill im confiedient im happy with everything. before spending out on proper spec'd springs
