Nice mate, looks tough!

very nice,thanks for posting pics for me
One question tho, does she run ok with the snorkel facing backwards? ( probably but all my tuned cars I have owned used a ram air intake....obviously the jimny isnt a sports car tho lol )
LOVE the sticker roflmfao

good pictures

Sorry forgot,
I have been looking at lift kits..... obviously I havnt even looked under my jimny yet ( yes yes I bought it without doing so....it was wet lol ) you mention a body lift and a spring lift.
I tohught they ran on leaf springs? Also, to do a 2" lift do you need to do both at once?
Sorry for being such a dafty, as I said before all Ive ever done is fast and family cars.... absolutely clueless in the 4x4 world. My landy with no chassis left is the extent of my knowlege.

EDIT:- I always bloody forget something.....
how did you attach the snorkel to the pillar?

ram air works well but isnt needed and runs very well.
as for attaching it i just used drainpipe mounts with the size being perfect match.

the are springs not leafs on the jimny and i have done two seperate lifts one two inch body one two inch spring which will be increasing by another inch soon you can do either or both i wanted arch gap ha

dont worry you will get used to the prper ways as i did. the guys on here are great people always helpfull. best site iv known.

and also forgot if snorkel faces forward it takes in water while driving where as a cars intake goes upwards a snorkel goes down so water would be taken in.

the sticker was borrowed from a friend ha

another point of it facing backwards is that being petrol and having a llamba scensor the e c u, is the engines working all the time for better performance and forcing air into snorkle consistly giving a false reading mine was going throught some amount of fuel and smelling as if being over fuelled running better on colder days , took it to garage thinking air blockage to be told it was the snorkle causing the problem
hope i ve put this over the right way

I have had that sign on the back of all my off-roaders.

Ive got a k&n filter on the top of the snorkle which stops any problems with water entering the snorkle (for some reason it is on the left and a pipe crosses the front of the radiator and up into the air box where there is a second filter - its made out of rollbar tube with some rubber hoses each side of the radiator to allow access

the best sign for the job hahaha reason my sorkel hasn't got a k n N is that its routed through the airbox as it was simple to install this way everything seemed to be perfect sizing which is not usually the case

update;

3" springs
3" shocks
shock repositioners
extended brake lines

ALL ORDERED :woohoo:

so it will have 5" total lift and plenty of travel now. just need some steel box section now for making some bumpers
