What year is the Jimny? The newer ones need a different cross member the older ones should be ok at that height.

Which end of the drive shaft did you put the spacer on, transfer box or differential end?

Ok. I think people usually put the spacer on the transfer box end. Thing is I'm not sure how or what your drive shaft is touching? Even with no springs and the suspension on full compression mine doesn't catch and also with the dampers off and the axles lowered to the extent of the anti roll bar I still don't have interference on my front drive shaft.
