Dave's "S200KYS" Jimny 'laner Build...

Thanks Kirkynut

Put into perspective though, I reckon the front LSD equipped diff was in for 3.5 years?!

So that's probably fifty greenlaning trips / events, and seen off a Rob Storr HD CV in it's life so far too, so I think that's a damn good life so far

It'll be rebuilt in time, as you say our-Rockwatt is super-busy at the moment, so I'll have to run with an open diff on the front for a while...

Excellent blog and great tech info on the build, thanks.

Thanks Sniper Following your build too

A very informative video ... I wonder if anyone "pegs" a Jimny Differential?

I think in comparison to Land Rover diffs the Jimny ones are stronger in their application, so there's not the demand to make it worthwhile messing about with pegging of them. It is as Dave says really.

Let's face it too, if anyone was going to break one, it's Dave!

The recent repairs were to get ready for the annual punch hunt at Hawkstone Park Follies with the Shropshire Greenlanes Facebook group tomorrow. Brett and I are honourary members, and have gone for the last four years, and I was just researching back for the historic results for the inevitable blog...

2017 ... Brett & Dave won, Alan & I were joint second
2016 ... Alan & I won, partly as Brett was away working and couldn't attend
2015 ... Alan & I were second, Brett retired after trying too hard and shearing BOTH UJs on the rear prop?! We also got the 'Best in Show' award
2014 ... Brett won and I retired with an alternator full of mud from the punch in the middle of the mudrun, I was still in a Vitara then though, it was before I upgraded to a Jimny

Let's see what TEAM JIMNY can do tomorrow then? Wish us luck! :woohoo:
