hi, been visiting the forum for about 6 months now finally joined, iv always been a landrover man but after sinking my last 90 i decided to get something a bit cheaper, after a bit of looking around i eventualy chose to go for a jimny, i picked up a nice looking black 2001 dohc with 85kmiles with all terrain tyres and 8spoke wheels, first thoughts were how small it was, i soon got used to it. after 5 months and 6000miles still going strong, i used to to quite a bit off offroading but iv only been on one green lane trip so far and it coped fine with the a/t tyres.
since owning it iv added-
2"kap suspension lift
shock relocation brackets
extended brake lines
cut the wheel arches back
215/80r15 malatesta kaimen tyres
it looks a lot more beefier now but the road handling is all over the place still to test it offroad with all the mods but hopefully that wont be too long.
thanks for looking

Hi and welcome to the forum. Your Jimny is looking great, Have you removed your anti roll bar ? If your handling is off it may be time for castor corection bushes, they really are worth the money
