Welcome to the forum. Ideally yes as it will save the dampers from constant maximum extentions. However if at all possible more benefits will be had from replacing the dampers with longer new ones as the existing ones will be very tired after 20 years. Ii accept that is a larger financial commitment but it will pay off if you intend to keep the Jimny longer term.

I'd recommend extended braided brake hoses too as when on full articilation yu might snap existing rubber brake hoses.
