4" suspension lift, 2" body lift..... was created by JimnyRiddle
Hi all, does anyone have a pic of a Jimny with a 4" suspension lift and 2" body lift running 215/75R15 muds, with uncut wheel arches?
Cheers
Mike

If your only running 215/75's you'll only need a 2 inch lift, if you do a 4 inch lift and a 2 inch body lift the wheels will look tiny and it will be no better off road than it would be with a 2 inch suspension lift.
Here's a pic of mine with a 3 inch lift and the original 205 tyres so imagine it around 3 inches higher and slightly bigger tyres
Standard height
3 inch lift and 235/75's

Hi Richie, thanks for the pics. Your Jim with the 3" lift and 235's looks very good. I've got a 4" lift kit on the way, but I'll have to stay on original tyres for a short while until I save pennies. I'm not sure I want to get into transfer box work to run 235's, so I might just go to 215's and leave the body lift alone. How do you get on running the 235's with the 3" lift off road?
Cheers
Mike

Rock lobster the 215 80 15s are 9 mm smaller than 235 75 15s but 20 mm narrower so it's something and nothing difference in reality
