KK's top plate seemed to have a large outward slope.
The bolt position seemed fine.
The size of the rod bush seemed suspicious.
However, I have not actually installed the KK plate on the KJ and confirmed it.
It may be possible to install it by simply inserting an angle washer.
If the rod end dimensions of the RC shock are the same as the KJ's, it seems possible to replace only the top plate with the KJ's, but we won't know until we buy the RC shock ASSY.
It's a little scary that the total length is unknown.
If the overall length is long, it will cause inconvenience.
I probably still have both top plates so I can confirm the required dimensions.

On the front struts, adding 1 cm of length = 2 cm of lift, because of the suspension geometry. You can use the thickness of your top plates or the additional length of the KK clevis to calculate what you’d get for total lift.

hello for a 1.5 inch lift you can take the rear shock absorbers and springs from wk1, only the spring will have to be heated and the coil will have to be expanded to 110 mm or just saw off half a coil. on the front native shock absorbers springs from nissan navara d40 or from pantfinder are installed, but with these springs you need to turn a small bushing or put regular washers under it so that the shock absorber does not go into rebound, this option is good for diesel engines on gasoline, the front can be rigid due to the springs
