Bru's Jimny

Well I've been here for a few weeks and asked loads of silly questions but i've never posted any pictures yet. So here it is (if it works)




Its totally standard for now. When I bought it, it had a serious death wobble issue, I replaced a wheel bearing, had the disks machined and the wheels balenced and thankfully it sovled the wobble.

Only other problem is the vacuum system isn't working, so for now I've blocked the pipes up and set the hubs in the locked position, and it works

I'm off to pick up some mud tyres tomorrow, but still on the look out for a cheap set of alloys/wheels to put them on. Also on the look out for some freewheeling hubs, so i can throw out the standard ones.

Still got a few jobs to do but hopefully I'll be sorted in time to come out and play with you's at the bigjimny event

have a look on ebay for wheels - vitara, sj early grand vitara and diahatsu all fit

yeah been watching a few sets with tyres, but wasn't sure if they would fit under my standard jimny, 235/75/15 wasn't sure on the width?

I'll get there eventually

I'd go for 15x7 with 235s

hopefully getting these for £60 which is quite reasonable i think, they have around 9mm of tread.

Not much of an update, but got my mud's fitted a few weeks ago.

Looking good Bru - you got your wheel spacers on there as well?

just the back ones mate :blush: havent had time to sort a replacement for the missing nut yet.

nice that, ive just ordered a new set of mud terrains, yours were a bargain LOL bout 100 each new.

:ohmy: how much lol

yeh, £96 each from camskill.... some places want 125 each haha

There km2's though, probably just the newer version of yours.

Looking good - The tyres make a massive difference
