Info missing for Jimny 4...


Be aware that of the following:

  • While being a very effective modification of serious all-terrain use, portal axles are quite expensive and the reliability/durability can be a major issue.
  • As a general rule, portal axles do not like high speeds.
  • They also increase the fuel consumption to a certain degree.
