Vedran's "Headache" was created by Mraz
So, this is my Jimny. I call it the "Headache" :)

Its a 2006 model that was once used by Nature Protection Service here in Croatia. Since then it was "tuned" a bit:

- 2012 engine and gearbox
- all new bushes
- heated leather seats and leather on steering wheel
- underside was protected with some sort of teflon based paint
- it's got a TrailMaster stage 2 2" lift
- it's got a older model bumper, I like it more
- runs on 215/75R15 Marshal Road Venture MT & 215/75R15 GP694 tires
- a lot of wiring, it has switches for front, roof, back and interior lighting; roof and back are via sockets and rest is sodered
- back seats removed and I've made a boot using alucobond
- front brake cylinders were giving me a hard time so I've made new ones using inox
- I've modified the panhards so they are adjustable
- I've made an antenna that will not brake :angry:
- some bodywork
- front and back led lights, new fog lights

To do list:
- manual hubs
- offset steel rims
- rtc steering damper
- underside protection
- winch


Hera are a few "action" pictures and a few "work in progress" ones :)

So I finnaly got modular wheels and mounted my "summer" tyres. A bit of on the fly bumper trimming with a scalpel to get things going, I'll do a propper trim when it gets warmer (yesterday was snowing).

Also, tomorrow I'll finnaly get manual hubs; AVM Reinforced :)

A friend gave me this .50 cal case so I renewed it and will probably keep my tools in it. Thinking of mounting it to the "mount for this and that".

I got a spare spare tyre mount and used it to make thin "mount for this and that!". Was thinking of mounting Jerry cans with petrol and water but they're kinda expensive here so I'll hold on that idea. I also made a holder for work lamp (not connected yet) and some tow points.

I like the recovery loops mounted onto the tow bar. I may copy that. :)
