jimny springs
Posted: Sat Jan 12, 2008 2:36 pm
i've done the search thing, zzzzz........., and not found the info i'm after.
does anyone know what the spring rates are for stock jimny springs, vs OME 2" springs (40mm).(jimny).
i did find vitara rates, which i'm interestsed in putting my spare ones under the jim.
i have stock lwb vit springs under the house. but before i do, i'd like to know if they'll even remotely be similar??
what i have is an 01 soft top jimny, auto. stock. wife and two kids. money is non existant.
oh, and a mortgage.
i find that the rear of the jim (stock) moves comfortable over bumps, the front however, feels like a go-kart, read zero movement., it just bangs through gutters and drains etc
it does have springs there
, and i assure you it's not riding on the bump stops, but they feel sooo hard. i'd like to lift it 3-4" soften the front and have the rear about the same.
cheers will.
