Yesterday I spend several hours underneath it changing the diff, gearbox and t/box fluids, it was cold and awkward and pumping the cold oil back in is pretty tiring.

After my mate had watched me do all this he told me about a cunning trick where you put a tube into the oil bottle and attach it to an air line to blow the oil out and up the tube into the gearbox or diff.

He got a lot of abuse for not mentioning that earlier!!

Bought some 6mm plywood to make a load area cover that will sit over the rear seats.

 

I will then cover it with some foam matting I bought for the workshop so our dog has something comfy to sit on.

 

I am going to make it in two pieces and use the mat to lock it together. Now just need to find the time to get the ply cut to size.

Ask not what you can do for your JImny but what your JImny can do for you:)

God I love this thing, we dropped a couple of dead trees and chopped up for firewood and this got hauled out off some ridiculous slopes. The steering was a bit vague on the way home too..

They wouldn't have provided it with axle bump stops if they didn't expect you to use them!
