Jimny rear shock repositioner / spacers was created by Gary Whenmouth
Just comparing rear shock repositioner / spacers, i cannot decide on Big Jimny, Jimny bits, or KAP. KAP are cheapest but do not come with any bolts. I either need to drill out my axle mounts and use long bolts with a nyloc nuts or find the correct bolts as i do not have them, im not sure on what size they are either?
Any views?

Not quite sure how you worked out that Kap is the cheapest. At £20 + VAT thats £24, without bolts and without P+P.

Remember that mine are offset, so you can adjust the angle of the shocks slightly to space them off the rear springs.

yeh, im sure you would.

But the prices are all about the same but martins has a bit more flexibility with fitment aswell so its the best choice.
