I do mean a jimny. Not a samurai. It's a 87 jimny, I think SJ30.

I figured the easiest way to lower it would just be lowered springs but of coarse they do not make anything specific to the jimny. Is there any lowered spring made for a similar model truck that may fit the jimny?

Haven't seen a Jimny lowered but seen a few Vits go down that path.

First thing to do would be change tyres to a really low ratio, say 245/35 then the rest is just spend

Its unlikely as the SJ front springs are pretty much flat anyway so they would need to be an inverted arch.
Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.
