Well I have got different part number listings for Challenger and Paj rear coils so they are not identical but thats not to say they wouldn't fit or work ok.
Chuck em in and see, it's not a big job..........................

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
