Manual Hubs was created by ryansjimny

Hello all, this is my first post on here and i'll get round to adding pictures of my Jimny soon. cage, winch bumper,3" KAP lift,2" body lift and a few homemade touches!

What im wondering is if anybody has any suggestions what I should do with the remaining hoses and vacume system after adding manual hubs? I've just ordered the adapter rings on here and want to make sure its all a proper job when I fit them!
Thanks.

Ryan,

I left everything in place on mine. The SJ hubs seal down ok to the Jimny hubs so the vacuum system still works and lights the dashboard lights ok.

I know others have removed the pipework and sealed the ends using an appropriately sized nail and some sealant

I've left my pipes in place, I wonder how water tight they will be, so might pullt hem off and put them back with sealant on the tubes to make sure.
