Vedran's "Headache"

So, this is my Jimny. I call it the "Headache"

Its a 2006 model that was once used by Nature Protection Service here in Croatia. Since then it was "tuned" a bit:

- 2012 engine and gearbox
- all new bushes
- heated leather seats and leather on steering wheel
- underside was protected with some sort of teflon based paint
- it's got a TrailMaster stage 2 2" lift
- it's got a older model bumper, I like it more
- runs on 215/75R15 Marshal Road Venture MT & 215/75R15 GP694 tires
- a lot of wiring, it has switches for front, roof, back and interior lighting; roof and back are via sockets and rest is sodered
- back seats removed and I've made a boot using alucobond
- front brake cylinders were giving me a hard time so I've made new ones using inox
- I've modified the panhards so they are adjustable
- I've made an antenna that will not brake
- some bodywork
- front and back led lights, new fog lights

To do list:
- manual hubs
- offset steel rims
- rtc steering damper
- underside protection
- winch

Cheers!

Looks really good, well done. I like the rear work light.

Very nice and very practical

nice, i have a load of them 'carling' style rocker switches for doing all my aux equipment, gonna mount them where the stick shift would go for a manual t-Box. nice to see a tidy jim doing some fun stuff

how did you get wiring to the lights on the hubs?

It's the spare wheel
Rear work light

Doh! now i see. Been a long week!

Very nice upgrades in the Jimny!!! :woohoo:

So I finnaly got modular wheels and mounted my "summer" tyres. A bit of on the fly bumper trimming with a scalpel to get things going, I'll do a propper trim when it gets warmer (yesterday was snowing).

Also, tomorrow I'll finnaly get manual hubs; AVM Reinforced

A few new "mods"

First was the bumper trim.

A friend gave me this .50 cal case so I renewed it and will probably keep my tools in it. Thinking of mounting it to the "mount for this and that".

I got a spare spare tyre mount and used it to make thin "mount for this and that!". Was thinking of mounting Jerry cans with petrol and water but they're kinda expensive here so I'll hold on that idea. I also made a holder for work lamp (not connected yet) and some tow points.

I like the recovery loops mounted onto the tow bar. I may copy that.

I had some free time ans spare iron so I did this. Looks kinda cool.
