Nick's Jimny was created by Goat
After a few play and play days I'm hooked and after a bit more ground clearance.
So I've turned this:
into this:
Big Jimny 3" lift and some 235x75s etc.
Just need to get my 10mm x1mm nuts for the shocks and I'll be able to see how it drives.

Definitely a winch before diff locker.
As someone wrote on this forum a while ago. "A winch gets you out of any situation, a locker gets you out of some situations" .. Or something like that

If you haven't got rear castor correction arms already, get some rear shock relocation brackets or your lower shock mounts wont last 5 minutes.
Nice looking jimny in the best possible colour they can come in

Got some pics of the build here. Not as many as I would have liked but wanted to make sure I got it finished. You can see how much longer the springs are.
Overall I raised the drivers door handle by 140mm. I guess the original springs must have sagged a bit.
