Hello 
This is my little Jimny. Had it for 3 days. Found lots of stuff I have to fix
Well, there were some rust I didn't notice when I bought it. By the rear seat belts. Just bought a welder, so have to learn how to use it
On the way home, passing the arctic circle. Flew down to mid-Norway. Took about 10 hours to drive home.
Not done much yet. Started making stuff black!
Plans are:
2" lift. Trying to keep it road legal, and that is the only kit I have found with Tüv approval.
Mud terrain tyres.
Winch
Remove rear seats and build a dog cage.

Working on a tray for my second battery. First battery I bought was to tall. Just bought the same as the old one, but because of the abs module, it does not fit. Found a winder but less tall battery that works!
I'm not a welder, so no solid tray. But a few bits and pieces here and there what will keep the battery in place when I strap it down.

Enjoying the wild. My dog is going crazy cause of all the raindeer passing our camp, and he can' t run after them. The Jimny is fantastic as an overlander. Can fit everything me and my gf + dog needs. Next project will be a shelf and crate in the rear.
Only had it for 2 weeks, but it is already my favourite car!

Here is a photo of the battery installed, with the rubber mat on top. As off roading is illegal in Norway, unless it is hosted as a motor sport event, we have to follow all the motor sport regulations.
And here is a picture of the dog crate. It will be carpeted, and the door will be modified a bit. Also going to make a shelf over the plastic box, so I can add another. One for camping gear, and one for recovery gear. All will be easily removable. Not bringing the dog crate and camping gear when I go off roading every 2 months
And here is a couple of more pics from this weekends trip. Going on a little overlanding trip later this summer, so we're going out camping for one day and then we make lists on what we forgot and what would be nice to have. And when we get home, we put it in the camping box for the rear
