I go with this especially if you are used to a more conventional car then the Jimny is like a Drayton Manor Park ride for jolts and bumps.:laugh: :blink:mark98 wrote: As others have said, its the overall suspension setup which is responsible for the on road handling and comfort. They can be rough over bumps and jump around a bit, but when travelling alone I ignore it. I find they actually handle quite well when you consider the live axle setup
