Total I have ever pulled was a fully fuelled disco and 2 passengers put of axel deep sticky mud.
The jimny managed it but the clutch went 8 days later ( it was previously a new clutch !! )
Now the paddle clutch has been fitted, I've pulled shoguns and defenders with ease

I think for what little extra it costs i'm going for a paddle clutch next, i don't get involved pulling much out but the standard clutches don't like much work do they. Mines been ok in honesty but i'd like a bit of piece of mind.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

Hi

My Jimny tows a caged trailer with a ride on mower all week as i am a Gardner. and does not complain.

And the largest thing if have pulled was an ambulance up a steep hill out of kimmeridge dorset when it snowed in november

Whan is the legal towing limit for a jimny?

I Love Waypoint Tours Holidays
