Toyota Leaf Spring Swap Kit with Missing Link Shackles for Suzuki Samurai - Rear Kit

Add upgraded axles or heavy wheels and tires and you will quickly outgrow stock Samurai leaf springs. Low Range Off-Road's Toyota Leaf Spring Swap Kit with Missing Link Shackles is our favorite spring swap kit for the off-road purposed Suzuki Samurai. This kit allows you to install front leaf springs from 1979-1985 Toyota Pickups and 4Runners on the rear of your Samurai. For many of our customers, Toyota springs are more readily available than Jeep YJ springs. Of course, availability is not the only reason to consider a Toyota spring swap. 

Toyota springs are the natural choice when installing a Toyota rear axle on your Samurai. Using our kit, you can complete a Toyota axle conversion without ever unbolting the springs from the donor axle.  But this kit also works with Samurai axles. How is that possible?

Toyota truck axles and Samurai axles differ in width by only 3/8". Our shackles use a combination of CNC laser cut shackle washers that accommodate both axle widths. When switching from Samurai axles to Toyota axles the washers just change from one side of the spring hangers to another.  If you plan to upgrade your axles in the future, this is the kit for you. Simply change washer orientation and swap your Toyota Axles.

Toyota axle installation requires the use of either OEM U-bolts and U-bolt Plates or a Toyota U-Bolt Flip Kit. Samurai spring plates can not be used on Toyota axles. 

This kit offers better handling characteristics than typically achieved with Samurai springs. Toyota springs are noted for incredible flexibility compared to factory Samurai springs. Toyota springs are longer and wider than Samurai springs and  provide improved roll axis stability.

This kit generally yields about 2.5" of lift over a standard SPOA (Spring Over Axle) lift, for about 7.5" of total lift.  This is great for 33" Tires.

We recommend our New Toyota OEM+ HD springs for these kits.

This rear kit pairs well with Low Range Off-Road's Toyota Leaf Spring Swap Kit with Missing Link Shackles for Suzuki Samurai - Front. (TSP-TSFM)
