New to off roading! was created by meerkatunita

Hi,

I've just bought a 2005 jimny with the hope to start going off roading in. My family all have off road defenders but I felt a jimny would suit me better!

So what I am hoping to do is add rock sliders, 2" lift, and some decent all terrains.

My question is, is it possible to get a second hand lift kit? They seem so expensive compared to the defender ones!
Also, what size tyres would be best with a 2" lift? Is it possible to have 16 alloys instead of the usual jimny 15's?

Sorry for all the questions I'm very new to all this!

Thanks
