they came out of a lwb sierra. im not sure if there 2 inch but there the same length as the nt 1 litre sierra standard shocks just a larger bore.

LWB and SWB Sierra shocks are the same (?)

They don't fit because?

in unknown condition. $650 and he has a new (with warranty) top end. good to see a suzuki owner thats not a tightass like most of us (including myself! ) i know i'm too tight to fork out for a rebuild

i got a complete including all bolt ons (alternator) haha and come with gearbox and startor motor and even gear shifter and exhaust and carby for a 6 pack of jimmy cans ok its not in the best condition but hey for what i paid for it and i only needed one bolt off it and was from the gear box

well in a year im going to fully rebuuild her maybe new head depending on if this one holds out untill then. but everything blue printed and balanced, ported head (havent really thought about it yet but might do) just make her into a brand new engine and do some slight alternations with her to gain a little more power im not wanting lots more just to make it a nicer engine and a set of extractors. you might be thinking why the F would you waste money on a F10a i couldnt care what you think i love my 1 litre i think its a great little motor and would never think about changing it out to something larger. as well as a full car rebuild/ restore but do some other bits to it suspension 2 inch and maybe lockers both ends and lil muddys
