I have a newly aquired stock 86 Samurai. The suspension sucks. I have ridden in enough of them to know that it is normal. I want to improve ride quality and stability, but don't care to raise height or increase articulation anymore than necessary. I have a set of YJ springs from a 6 cylinder and plan to use them. I plan to do a SPUA to minimize lift and would prefer to move the shackle to the rear of the front springs cause it works better (why did they put in front to begin with??) I would like to keep the wheel base close to the same to minimize driveshaft changes. My questions are:
1. Does anyone see problems in this approach.
2. Does anyone have a better suggestion
3. Although I realize I could do this myself, I would prefer a package from a supplier. The closest I could find that sounded OK was from Canyon State Components, but I can't locate them or even find out if they are still in business. Anyone know someone out there who can supply this
