ok I've searched for hours and there is no definitive answer in here.
so do late model Marutis have a NT spring spacing and WT diffs?
or are they WT spring spacing with WT diffs?

I know what your thinking.
Be a good thing for my bomb, too, if the guts still take LJ diff gearing.

He's not thinking that, but they would be cool for your application. My understanding is that the axles are WT width 1.0 centres, but are prone to bending due to the smaller diameter of the 1.0 tubes and the distance from the springs to the wheel.

Now it sounds like a bad idea, especially as I already have offset rims, and a yard full of 1.0 nt diffs and axles to use up first.

I have a WT maruti, and i can tell you it has WT spring spacing i.e springs outboarded from the chassis.
