it a od to change the way the bearings come out it changes abut of the back plate so you don't have to remove the brakes to remove the shaft it used to be done to sj413 and uses sj410 parts but I think it can be done to jimnys Im sure ive seen it somewhere on here thought it was renard but maybe not looked around on the net not found a good walk through manily the bits to buy and weather you use the jimny or sj bearings

Ahhhhh I see. Need to do my bearings dreading it, any views on which bearings to go for Martin sells 2 kits one cheaper than the other? You can almost get 2 cheper kits for 1 expensive one so are the expensive ones almost twice as good?

I did my rears the other day, they're not to bad, give me a bell if you get stuck when your doing them, but if you managed your kingpins then the rears will be fine, worst bit is removing the bearing race but I sure there is plenty of YouTube type vids that will help you out.
