Seeing as we can't do much with our Jimnys at the moment and I am a key worker I stopped on my way home from work tonight to take a couple of snaps as something fun to do with it. It's all a bit urban but that's all I can do with the restrictions at the moment!
The kingpin bearings I replaced last need attention as I have a small leak from the driver's side swivel, so I ought to have shimmed the kingpin bearings it seems. I have some annealed copper washers from the BigJimny Store that don't seem to be listed any longer that I shall use on some new bearings to take up the slack as I have had success with these previously.
I also have some SJ manual freewheeling hubs, so bought some adapter rings from Jimny Bits this week and will fit those when I change the kingpin bearings. I've been running fixed hubs with no issues but now it's my daily and I've had the manual hubs, I might as well put them to good use.
