I have a 3" lift, from jimnybits, and some ORA front arms, Rob Storr Panhads and steering rod etc. someone mentioned that a 3" lift kit isnt enough for 31's ? I run 750/16's which are near enough 32", jimnys are tippy enough without jacking them up to 4.5". Each to their own, obviously if you want it to look like a monster truck then get the highest you can, personally I think 2" lift is enough and cut the arches out a bit, and cut a chunk out of the bodymount under the front headlights , keeps C of G as low as possible, my tyres dont rub anywhere.

Just my opinion for what its worth, but Ive had a few jimnys over the last 7 years.

If you have the right off-set to make up for the lift, there is no reason why your Jimny will be unstable. If fact a well set-up Jimny with a 4.5" lift and good off-set will actually feel more stable than stock.

With a 4.5" lift and say 31" tyres I would recommend 8J rims or 7J with 30mm spacers.

Hi Rob,

A little offtopic but im getting youre 3"lift installed next week, i was just wondering does it need 32mm wheelspacers? for better handling? and do i need to raise my brake balancer?

Thank you!
