I measured 17.6 cm and 17mm thick of my old NJ springs......tell me if they are interchangable if you get around to it ....just purchased a Challenger as well.

Thanks Dave, im thinking they won't due to the extra cm diameter. I'll have a measure up tomorrow and let you know the outcome.

cheers, Glen

OK, update on challenger springs - they are quite different to Pajero ones, they don't fit. (well they do but not satisfactorily!)

I had some Heavy duty Challenger ones (16mm), whipped out one Paj one, from then on it was quite obvoius, the Challenger ones were a good 4 inches shorter than standard Paj ones, and the Challenger ones were about 1 cm bigger in overal diameter.

While it was out I took a photo of the two together, will try to get that up sometime this week.

Cheers, Glen
