I don't think so, if it did there would have been lots of conversations on the various forums about retro fitting it to older Jimnys or SJs.

cheers. how do they perform in mud?
i wish they had bigger wheel arches as standard as i would love to get a decent off road tyre on without having to mod the arches or lift it as its on warranty at the moment also on hp.
i am dying to get it off road just on some green lanes or something.
nothing serious untill i get it paid for and then lifted.
whats the biggest size i can get on to standard rims without fouling arches etc ?

I've just got one too Bobcat! I love mine also. I know what you mean about grannyish - so far all the other Jimnys I've seen out in the real world have been piloted by ladies of a 'CERTAIN AGE' lol. I'm 45 so technically I could be a granny but I'm not one.
I love mine though - love driving it , love just walking towards it at the end of the working day knowing I've got a fun drive home, love the view, love not having to worry about the weather in winter time, love it full stop. Great job Suzuki - wish I'd got one years ago but like you I'm seriously happy with the level of kit it has.

PS Sorry I can't help with your questions I'm too new to 4X4s!

hi liz i like mine too. they quite a good little car and not as unstable as i have read about. dosnt feel as good handling as the frontera did but its not bad for such a small car.
