I've got the spring spacers and added the rest of the kit that dave now does as a full kit.
The ride is hard without the shock extensions, front flex isn't really an issue if the anti rollbar is left on. The extensions just give you back some travel. The rear shock extension/relocation brackets are a great little mod though and i think they make a great difference to the rear flex.



Thats mine with a little more flex to go but you get the idea. Not too bad for a "budget" lift.

Now's a good time to buy from dave too as he's got a january sale: www.bits4vits.co.uk/store/jimny/1-5-jimn...n-lift/prod_395.html

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

Thanks, maybe I buy the suspension spacers because the 2" lift kit with springs is €694.56 without shipping costs. To expensive for this time I think.

Update:

I have bought the suspension spacer kit from Bits4vits.co.uk.
But, here is my question: does anyone have a manual with pictures or something to assamble?

Thanks

they won't be wasted as you can use them and a spring lift to get a 4" lift :evil:

I should be on commission dave! :laugh:

Darthloachie, thats my thinking on them. When i bought the bits i always said they'd never be wasted, the only parts that will be redundant are the front shock extensions. Later in the year i'll couple it all up with some 2" springs and +4" shocks and all the associated castor correction etc...

Then it gets really expensive! Panhard rods/Extended brake lines/caster correction arms and all bushes.:sick: :sick: :sick:
And where do you stop?
I'm planning on transmission disk brake, rear disk conversions ect.
But any part that I have made redundant has gone to good use to other members on this forum. :)
