I cannot claim to be an expert on this so this is only advice to check what you are buying, the kit may be fine.

However, I believe that the SJ, Vit and Jimny are all slightly different in the way that the body bolts to the chassis. Certainly the "Bits4Vits" kits for both are different.

I have a Bits4Vits Jimny kit for sale in the shop and, of course, both the Vit and Jimny kits are available at www.bits4vits.co.uk to look at.

My personal feeling is that this ebay kit drills out the old mounts in some way and "bolts through" the resulting holes. I don't know for sure and I am only guessing.
