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

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.
