Ok, about the front shock that's something I had not thought about but the new bushes are very thick and still I can't get the nut on the extension
But the rear suspension was pretty easy I jacked the axle up and I remove the bolt. Then I let the axle get down and remove the spring. Then it was easy, put the spacer in place and mount the extension on the shock with bushes between. I pulled out the shock and put the bolt back in.
Now I know it for the next time. :woohoo:
Thanks!

If I was fitting the front shock extension, I think it might have been easier to cut 4 or 5 mm off one of the bushes.
But looking at the photo of the front shock bushes they look ok to me.

To cut a few mm of the bushes was maybe better and easier, but I thought they come specialy for the Jimny so they will fit. The job is done but it cost me 6 hours! :ohmy:
A question, I want black rims! Is it easy to paint them self? Or do someone knows where I can order black rims and that they send to the Netherlands?

Looking at your rims they are in good condition so save your money and spray them black, as you will be a able to fit 205 or215/75 /15 m/t or a/t tyres on the standard rims.
You will need to trim the front bumper a little as it's a mk 2 facelift and the tyres will rub on full lock.
