Hi, i have a 95 SJ and im wanting to do a spoa, offroad armory have these three kits you can buy:

Basic SPOA kit. £225
Kit includes.
4 spring saddles
z-bar
4 shock mounts.

Full Kit. £315
Kit includes.
4 spring saddles
z-bar
4 shock mounts
Extended good ridge brake hoses
2 prop shaft spacers.

Deluxe Kit. £545
Kit includes.
4 spring saddles
z-bar
4 shock mounts
Extended good ridge brake hoses
2 prop shaft spacers
Full poly bush kit
4 extended pro-comp shock absorbers.

just wondering which one is worth the money? or if anyone knows anywhere else i can get one (cheap as possible) also i need new leaf springs, where can i get them on the net? cheers

My advice stay away from Z links,you would be better to do a half hi steer using a Merc steering arm,there is a write up on Suzukiclubuk.I would use astra m2 shocks on the front £9 each and transit shocks on the rear much better that extended shock mounts.Dave Jones/K9DRJ at bits4vits will do you the prop spacers and the poly bushes.As for the perches, how good is your welding??? Suzukishrek off Difflock does a wicked set of laser cut bolt on perches,you can also get the perches of ebay for £25 a set.Dave at LLama 4x4 do good quality extended brake hoses for not much money he also does rough country shocks.
Personally i wouldn't do a SPOA without a Bam bar as you may end up with S shaped springs,but again that is my personal choice.

dont worry decided to sell and get a disco =]

Pity because a slightly lifted Sj on decent muds will eat a disco alive.

For the price of the disco you could get a very capable Sj.....

PS How much for the SJ??? :D

i know exactly what you meen... its got mud terrains on it at the min and i can get places heavily modded defenders etc cant, its a very hard choice but i think it makes more sence to get a disco... and id take £700 for the sj...

Im a disco man through and through and very much doubt an SJ will "eat" a disco for breakfast. In fact its probably the most insane thing i have ever heard, you must be on some strong drugs!

BUT at those prices that would be enough to get me into an SJ. You wont get lift kits etc for landys for that cfheap!

change of plan the sj is staying, and i might by a disco aswell and keep sj for a trials project..

[wheelspinner]

Yay.....good choice.

I am going down the Disco and SJ route, should be getting a 200tdi in the next few weeks.
