Introduction

• Suzuki used to produce an "el-cheapo" 2WD-only (rear wheel drive only) Jimny edition in the early production years (probably around 1999-2003).
• These Jimnys are quite rare, but still appear here and there from time to time on the used car market.
• 2WD-only Jimnys usually have (almost) no additional equipment (like power steering, ABS, power side windows, power mirrors, air conditioning, etc.).

However, a 2WD-only Jimny might still be a compelling purchase.

• Reason 1: They are usually very cheap on the used car market.
• Reason 2: A 2WD-only Jimny can be easily retrofitted with missing 4WD mechanics for a relatively low cost.

The purpose of this article is to provide guidelines on how to retrofit the missing 4WD system components into a 2WD-only Jimny, in order to transform it into a full 4WD Jimny (just like any other "normal" Jimny).

If you already have a "normal" 4WD Jimny, you do not need to read this article. Go 4WD-ing already!
