this is my 2011 jimny,
picked it up off the showroom 1 year ago, and have added a few extras.

still a long list to go, rear bar ready to go on with swing away tire carrier and gerry holder,
rear draws, cargo barrier, diff locks and a fair few other bits to go.

so far it has the snorkel, front bar, and a procomp 2 inch lift, i need some decent rubber!

Hi & welcome!

Just a note on your 2" lift... i think you have fitted the rear springs to the front and vice versa.

You have an amount of positive rake angle at the mo ;)

bent the standard front panhard to buggery on the weekend while out pig shooting. was climbing up hill and traversing a log at full lock and felt something "give"... a couple hours later once i hit the road again, it was abvious something was wrong, the spaghetti panhard was bent on the horizontal axis, and the rear one was starting to twist.

punched the new rods in while i had some down time in the workshop this afternoon.
and my toolbox whoring in the pic as well, $7800 in tools thus far and much more to go, mainly snap on and schley products, some blue point from snap on.

cheers
