The UK website is of little use. Their email address is not working.

But i've been in contact with a Spanish reseller of Amada Extreme shocks.

The Explorer II remote reservoir shocks for the Jimny are 736 euro + shipping 45 euro to Denmark for 4 shocks.
The shocks are totally re-valveable and serviceable.

Are you sure the OP has an "SJ410"... could be some confusion with worldwide model numbers, as his Avatar picture shows a Jimny...

And it even leans like a Jimny!

Just a thought!

Thanks for the info bros! Cuz I just transited from a lowered car to a lifted car. So probably not really used to a 'softer' setting. However the local mechanic recommended 80psi on the front and 40psi at the back. As for spring rate. I'm using a comfort spring.. (not sure of the spring rate) but for the reservoir, the range is from 20-200 psi depending on your liking.

I have used it for about a week now, I must say its been really performing to my expectations. I have tried with different psi on the reservoir. Going from 60/20 to 120/60 and it has made a vast difference.

Tyres pressure set to 30psi on road and 28psi offroad. So far, 8/10 for performance (:

Cheers and live dangerously.

most of us jimny guys are too tight to splash out on remote reservoir shocks so you know more than most of us :laugh:

Your tyre pressures sound a bit high - we run 20 psi on the road and 12-15psi off road - the lower the tyre pressure offroad the better the traction - to go really low (9psi) then beadlocks are needed (or maybe innertubes)

You haven't really answered any of the questions asked. Like, what Suzuki you have. Sounds more like a Jimny than a SJ.

Also, why even ask you local mechanic about reservoir shocks. They don't anything about that. Ask a suspension guy about it, or ask some guy a Amada Extreme. They're very helpful.

As you can see, having semi-expensive suspension don't mean you know anything about it. Always a good idea to do a bit of research before spending £££.
