Does a Diesel Conversion using the Acme Suzuki Turbo Diesel Conversion Kit require a spring over axle suspension lift?
No. A spring over axel lift is not required for the VW engine conversion or for daily driving on the street in your Samurai or Sidekick. There are many ACME Suzuki diesel owners running around the city without a suspension lift. However, if you have weak or sagging springs you will need to bring them back to stock Suzuki specifications or you can compensate for the sag by using longer shackles. It is Acme’s recommendation that you consider a spring over axle lift (SPOA) because it is more desirable to have extreme suspension articulation for off-road 4X4 high performance and spirited wheeling.
