Fitted a steering damper this morning and what a difference. Since the lift and even with the camber correction bushes the steering was just that bit too light, it would self center Ok but at higher speeds (if thats possible in a Jimny) it was just wasnt quite enough feeling. Needs a longer run to really check out different road types but round the block I am well impressed. Throughly recomend this easy mod to everyone and with Martin's bracket the job only takes 1/2 hour B)

Had a trip out today round a few local'ish lanes which we had'nt explored before.

All was good except one which got narrower and narrower :whistle:



There are a couple worse than them, do you think they will polish out :silly:
