Looked at the rear silencer that now rubs againts the tow bar---- Not so easy.
Removed rear silencer and got mounts bent to correct position so it no longer fouls----getting easier

cleaning day - get a few people ask me why i polish and wax the jimny because its a 4x4 but it helps with cleaning when needed.

A good citrus prewash is always a good investment - spray on let it dwell and wash the crud off :)

just thought id share :)

(few minutes of your life you won't get back :D)

Started to clean the engine bay by removing the air filter box and battery, sprayed with traffic film remover and wiped the inner wing clean and associated parts, looking good so far.
Cleaned the fuel filler recces and filler door.
Remove my grill S from center and refitted it 2nd from the left.
There's no rush i've all summer to go at yet.

Engine oil and filter changed.

I then found a glass bowl missing from one of the number plate lights.....anyone know where i could source one of these?
