Jimnybits do a lift kit and I think its a smidge cheaper than here (sorry Martin ). (remember prices on that website exclude VAT but will be added).
I think you might struggle to stay under £400 though. Castor correction bushes are £90 and brake lines are something like £60...
You could go crazy and buy the ORA kit which has everything you need but its a lot more than £400...

FWIW I have es3000 on my sj413 and they are VERY stiff. If I had to choose for my jimny I would go with the softest trailmasters. The trailmaster shocks I have on my jimny are perfect

The only shocks I offer are the Rough Country ones, so my price is based on that.

For a daily drive . . . . Leave it stock , no matter how much you spend on a lift and associated parts it will be worse on road than when you started
