So then Martin. The weather has been good over the last few months, in the main anyway. Where is Bigjimny at now?

The rear axle is back on and the Jimny is sitting on its wheels.

I was playing around with some different combinations so no photos at present as the shocks are on upside down and I didn't want to confuse anyone with the pictures.

The Jimny is away on holiday at the moment as we are moving house. Therefore I have moved it to temporary accomodation to save having to shift it on the day of the move.

When its back it needs the shocks putting on the correct way and the trailing arms need to be looked at as the axle is currently not sitting straight.

Oh dear - are the new brackets welded on in exactly the right places?

drill and tap for a bigger fitting. Should be possible to find something that fits.

Or perhaps try chemical metal. When it's fully hardened it's possible to tap thread in it as well.
