Daves Jimny beast! was created by Dave!
So a week ago (maybe less than that) i purchased myself another jimny, after previously having one last year.
I had that much fun in my last one and that only had a one inch body lift and mud tyres!
so i found my current jimny for £1200 but talked the guy down to 980 quid! (bargain)
Has a few marks on it but it will be getting battered on lanes anyway so i really don't care.
but noticed this one had no rust anywhere!
it was initially running abit rough and had a blocked cat, thanks to the guy that made the "sluggish on power" thread as you saved me alot of time and money!
so i set to work on finding parts for my jimny after getting some inspiration on here! so thanks guys!
Ive always been use to lowering cars and not raising them.
my previous lupo which i fitted hydraulics with a 8 inch lift! notice the genuine bbs rms there
More to follow... just finding images
