Where is a good spot to find some parts for a 410 or 413? I am assuming they are they same vehicles just different size motors? I am looking for a lift for a Jimny which according to OME is the same as the SJ413.

your wasting your time and money if you wanna lift your SJ. firstly, you don't wanna use those SJ axles, they are weak and narrow. you oughta find some 86 and up samurai axles for better width or some toys for better width and strength. secondly, don't waste your money on aftermarket kits, they're usually expensive and the parts can be found at your local hardware and truck/trailer supply stores at a fraction of the cost

I had a friend who lifted his SJ and it was awkwardly unstable and funny looking, even after spending extra cash of some backspaced rims to widen the stance. do some homework and do it right

I am only looking to lift it enough to run a set of 31's for now. Hopefully in time I can find a set of toys for it. I am hoping to get by with the stock axles for awhile, not looking at building a hardcore offroader right now, more of a trail machine.

do a springover with some new perches from a trailer supply store. they cost bout 2 bucks a pop, then buy a zlink or better yet, a hi steer. don't half ass your steering, spend the cash and get a proper steering link.

Thanks for the info but I think I may have to wait until my vehicle is delivered so that I can figure out if it has the same suspension as the 410 or the 413.
