Hi All,
Giving the amount of work that's about to go into my jimny I've decided it's time for a thread on it.
Purchased it in march with a suspected head gasket issue.
So quickly set to work sorting that out.
Had the head skimmed.
And with it all running nicely for a couple of months decided to start collecting bits for getting it offroad ready.
235 75 blackstar tyres
Extended brake lines.
And then last Thursday this happened.
So I dismantled the back end to make sure there was no additional damage and found a not insignificant amount of rust.
Starting to deal with it

I do hope that's hollow, Ollie, you'll need a V8 if it isn't :whistle:
