Hi all,
Iv got myself another vitara, its a 97 5 door and im wondering about lifting the front up either with spacers or springs.
Iv got all the bits for the back but i get a bunch of people saying spacers are best and some goin the other way..
Help me make a decision here.
All opinions appreciated

Go springs.
V6 front coils give about 2" and I found them fine in my 5 door 1.6, but a touch stiff in the 3 door.
Flip the top shock mount to get a bit extra out of your front shocks and get some camber bolts fitted.
Easy to do (I only have 1 arm and have done them myself)
My 2c I used to love my scud

Whats a pair of second hand ones worth??
Can get tein springs fir a shade under 200

I think I paid $40. just from local wrecker

So weemsy is that tf11 springs??

Hmmm, was a while ago. Can't remember.
They were out of a 1995ish escudo v6, that all I can remember.
If you search for 'weemsys escudo build' thread, it will probably be on there

Found some v6 ones. Same price. Cheers fir the info weemsy

Finally sorted. Found some v6 fronts and some toughdog lifted jimny springs.
Has lifted pretty much 2 inch at both ends. Pretty happy how it sits now with carrying capacity still being a shade high at the back

Plenty of droop still with e30 bimmer shocks

Nice man

What is the open length of the bema shocks compaired to Commy wagon shocks?

Couldnt tell ya mate. I never bothered to compare the two. I just bought the better of the two price wise. Repco had em for a good price on beemer ones
