well when i get a new diff housing, if i get a job... lol.. i will have to set up my mounts and everything on it again.

i was just wondering if jimny springs are different left and right in the front to make up for the lean ? or do jimny's not have a lean ?

anyways i had to make one coil seat higher than the other to make up for the lean in my coily when i set up the seperate coil and shock. and i actually had to put a 15mm spacer later on aswell :?

thoughts ?

yea there is a difference in lengths for sure, not sure as to how much though. I actually thought from memory that the spring lengths may have been same in front - with a longer drivers rear, however I cant remember now

hmm any thoughts on what my other options could be, probably no way of telling if jimny rears would work..

Urethane spring spacer on the heavy side? I've run urethane spacers on the heavy side of my Gwagen fo 10 years and it's been fine.

ah okay so there are no issues with my current setup then :) ! was not sure if the suspension guru's thought of this as a no go.
