Good to hear.
Incidently, after almost 4 months of driving, I went out 2 nights ago with some mates, and, after showing off for 20 minutes, managed to get myself cross exelled and going no where in 2 ft of sticky mud.
Recovery was only managed using the rear tow bar and 2 other 4x4's shackled together!!. :ohmy:
at one point I thought the JImny was going to end up on its side as it was not possible to snatch block or recover in the direction I was facing :ohmy: :ohmy: :silly: but after ridign the wall of death, she found the floor.
Afterwards, I found myself recovering a Frontera Sport and I never realised ho wheavy they were compared to the Jimny.
The new clutch was put to the test, and drive tras transmitted effortlessly, spinning all wheels and digging down to get traction. No sign of slippage or nasty smells.
Sorry for Rambling

I can confirm on its first outing the clutch was top notch with no over heating and no slipping it work well.

Great News. When its gets a little damper... we must have a mini meet... be great to see other Jimnys out and about. At present, were limited to the green oval brigade to humiliate
