the plan is going with TG ones, and yes with a bit of die grinding they will fit, as they are quite larger i plan to bring the stub out with a spacer
from testing they seem to need 5mm either side to get the cv clearance
then just machine the end of the TG CV to suit the jimny and what ever hub is being used as they are longer than the jimny ones


If your spacing them out don't overlook that the pivot point of the cv needs to be perfectly in line with the king pins or you will kill axle seals and hub sleeves in double quick time.
