If you see one on ebay i'd negotiate to purchase before the auction finishes. $500 to $700 is right on the money, this set up was for sale on AZ mid last year for $650. Didn't last long, an AZ member who likes to  grabbed it, he beat me by half a dozen key strokes damn it .....  i recently saw an infill piece, the bit below the rear cab section sell on ebay for $120, a custom from FZ for a fiddy is a good price.

The creaking is frustrating as off road. Any time you flex the car up it sounds like the cabin is snapping in half.
But the extra cabin space a maruti has over a tintop lwb is worth it.

SPOA or SR? How about forgetting both options and go with something that works.

Any suspension that provides the articulation you require to drive the terrain you frequent, without excessively raising the cars height. Which rules out SPOA.
If you search here for shackle reversal you'll find nothing but failed attempts and unfavourable comments.
