Nissan King Cab D21 I believe are a similar compressed length as the Lada and 40mm longer on extension. Though some (after-market uprated iirc) made have larger diameter bodies so some spacing made be needed.

Best bet is to pop into your local friendly suspension shop and ask them to look in their books for shocks that are 22"/560mm when extended and see what vehicles they're for, then pop round to the appropriate breakers.

Let me know what you find and how well they work so I can add it to my site (PM is best, as I don't frequent here often these days).

I'm unsure of the dimensions of these jimny ones, but |I make something like this and use standard shocks on all my lifts:

im sure jimnybits would give you the width of the bracket the shock fits in so you can see if the niva one will fit in there.
