Those rear radius arms look like an interesting design. It's a shame it's all in Japinese as they seem to highlight them and say something about them.

I am really starting to like pretty Jimny's and fancy building one up but can't afford two of the buggers!

Here's a link to all their Jimny stuff - I got it after using google translator to get the word for Jimny in Japanese and searching in the search box:

4x4-cojp.ssl-xserver.jp/cgi-bin/shop/shop.cgi

Good luck ordering anything though! It will take a while with Google translator to understand the web pages and know what you're doing on it!

I think all springs that long will bow a bit, even with the castor right, simply due to their length and that's what springs do when they are that long.

Those wheels are tasty - I'm guessing they are Rays from the stickers.
