I use the Discovery Damper and it is fine.
Very shortly I will be offering complete kits which include the Damper.
A budget kit based on the Discovery Damper
A premium kit based on a Rough Country Damper.
My own opinion is that a Jimny is light enough and has powered steering so does not need a heavy duty damper. Also, due to its position under the front of the car, it is exposed to damage when off-roading so you do not want to spend too much on one.
There are a number of "RTC" dampers around with springs, I feel that if you need one that forces a return to centre then you have problems that need sorting out rather than covering up with a damper.

So,if I understand all
. The better solution is the discovery kit
because it is not heavy duty, costs low money and easy to change if you break it during off-roading :laugh: .
If I want to install a procomp or rough country damper, I need big tyres and lift kit...
