Well guys I got the Jimny through it's MOT weyhey 
So I took it straight to my local building site and after 15mins of abuse melted the clutch
To be fair I think it was on it's way out anyway and the 33s just finished it off.
Anyway as you all now know I have been unsure of the disturbing handling and steering on the road and I'm glad to say I am slowly getting used to it.
But off road..... for the 15 minutes upto melting the clutch I can honestly say I was AMAZED at how easily it coped with the 45 degree incline/declines, 3ft of water and generally ridiculous terrain. I havent even wired my ARB compressor to power my lockers either :ohmy:
WOW :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
ps Do you like my new avatar?
