would be pretty easy to fab up, the truss mounts to the front control arm mounts & the dampner runs back to the drag link.

tough dog do a kit, the other option is the calmini one, but you need to buy other bits for it to work. |

tough dog ones are return to centre. Meaning you will be fighting against it when your turning. Ive never run it. The calmini one is not. I personally run it. Its great. The fact you need another cross bar to mount it is a bit of a downer, But you get a hell of alot more strength up front with it. |

doesn't fit the SV's, had one in my original order. 
i should make one, the one that came with the ODA kit is pretty flimsy & only picks up one side of the mount. |

Why run a damper? Vitara front ends are never going to get the wobbles like a solid front end, which is what a damper is there to take care of. |
