just curious if the springs from the two cars differ in any dimension besides length, looking at some coil spacers for a vitara's standard springs so im wondering if they will fit on my jimny? :blink: Many Thanks

You'd have to use rear springs, the fronts would be rock hard because the Vit has IFS. The SWB rears would still be about 25% stiffer.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

Tried some plus 2 vit rears on the back of my jimny and it was awful! Theyre not much stiffer, but enough to make for an awful ride! The rear would bounce on the suspension recoil and lift the tyres off the ground at times! Pretty sketchy on roundabouts too. Just dont do it.....
