What did you do to your jimny today?

It'll be fine.

Today my Jimny's in the garage round the corner, having some trailmaster castor-correction bushes fitted...

Having had a 2" JimnyBits spring lift fitted, it seems to give more lift than the +50mm (+2") trailmaster lift I had on previously (but took off to sell the jimny, but it never went!), and it does wander a bit and feels vague on the road...

I was going to fit them myself, but talking to the owner in our shop and he said he's got a full set of SnapOn bushes pullers... so I thought I'd let them have the fun on a ramp with the right tools, rather then me lying on my back (in the rain today) with some heath-robinson equipment...

:S

busted front windscreen after hitting a tree in The Lakes (Day2 of our weekend away)

Day1 saw a sad end to a Jimny - all passengers were safe and sound.

What a great blog.

Thanks for sharing, lots of time spent to get this on line for us armchair 'laners' .............

Changed the rear uj so it dosent sound like a plain trying to take off anymore happy jimny again

32mm spacers - Mrs don't like the look but she will get used to it.
Will try to post photos once the 3" lift is done

Took the sill covers off today as I am paranoid about rust. Sills look good but the seams are a bit flaky. Rubbed one down and gave it a coat of Hammerite.

Swapped out my bucket seats which were to small for my big bum and put in some standard Jimny seats which my bum does fit in! Thank god haha.

I fitted an 'engine chip', which cost £9.50 from ebay so expected nothing but have been pleasently suprised it is defo quicker and a lot more responsive. |Just have to see what it is like from a fuel point of view.
