Those springs are at best shoddy, to have both collapse in such a way is outrageous. Zanfi are so expensive too....

I'm very happy with my new Eibach springs but they only give +30mm,

Hope the new stuff is more capable....

Those springs are terrifying! Did they not make any alarming noises breaking up?

I spent the day fitting the factory mudflaps (front and rear) as well as the factory door mouldings to my Gen 4 SZ4.

I then also used a DIY brush-on bin-liner I picked up to coat the rear door sill as a test because I have noticed a few small / light scratches from throwing surf gear, boards and dogs in and out. Whilst I was doing it, I coated the tool cavity because I always have wet and salty stuff back there and I had a bit of beach sand collecting under the tools.

I will see how this holds up, and potentially do a couple of coats on my door sills and perhaps my wheel arches as well.

In my case it's as always, eBay!

Today I started my jimny

Not that momentous I hear you cry, but when it's the first time in over a year and a half of rebuilding it, I was buzzing.

There have been many times when it nearly became too much and ended up as sold for parts, but I just couldn't do it and kept going instead.

Not quite time for the champagne yet, I still need to get the mot, which I'm hoping to be this week if I can tidy up the last few bits
