Jimny Build {it begins}

[yoshie]

Thank's George.

Made some space for bigger rubber. I have a 410 transfer {big drop in low ratio} box so time to move to 31s.{ a fair bit of work needed to make the 410 transfer fit}
It is also getting a rear locker.

Sliced the wings




Cut 2" strip for the arch I had removed



Then fitted this back on, gives about 5" more clearance



Painted the Sliver plastics in Black.
Plenty space for bigger rubber

New boots, the wheels need some TLC but I have went from 29s on 15" rims to 32" on 16" Vit rims. Rear arch needs a little bit of trimming as I don't want or need more lift. The diffs are almost 12" clear

Looks like it could pop a wheelie now Brian.

Aye it is a bit short on over hang at each end now pal.

[KERRSURF]

It's making that standard 2ng gen look a bit wee now.

[yoshie]

The Jimny grew another couple of inches today, no choice trimming more wasn't enough. It now has 5" of suspension lift. 22" clearance to the sliders and 12" under each diff.

[Diezel Weazel]

Nice

[dannyboy77]

Nice

what to see it in action!

Brian / Alan

is the lift to give the wheels more room under the arches when in the cross axled ruts?

[puddlesurfer]

That looks great - If I win the Lotto I'll buy it just to go to Drumclog with you!
