If i am correct OME kit does not need any castor correction or custom panhards, right? Or it is fair for every lift kit up to 2"?

But lift kit comes with better shocks and springs, no? How can long travel suspension be worse than stock on bad roads?

Not only tarmac. But then again without mods Jimny looks pretty lame IMO ;)

I would change the Panhards or fit brackets and fit castor correction on any lift, personally I don't think the Jimny has enough castor angle in stock form.
Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.
