Martin administers the Wiki and he should look into it.

I added appropriate notes about Rough Country and ProComp, but I think they should still be left in the lists.

Are there any more UK-based manufacturers or sellers to list?

I also remember that there were some German and Japanese manufacturers and sellers, but unfortunately I've lost my records about them ....

That's great Bosanek, thanks. That Wiki is becoming one helluva resource, mainly through your considerable efforts.

Then you should also add King, Fox, Radflo, Ori etc as they also makes shocks that fits the Jimny.

Also, Bilstein and Koni both makes shocks specifically made for the Jimny.

Offroad Armoury have stopped making Jimny parts. Now they only make custom built spaceframe buggies and sells builder parts.

I would prefer that this wiki entry refers to kits/modifications etc suppliers rather that individual component supplies. e.g. you cannot buy a suspension kit from Koni, Pro-Comp , you cannot even buy shocks as you have to go through a distributor. Otherwise it will become huge with every shock, winch, strop supplier etc. I think it should be short and concise with indictions of the suppliers core products offered (eg lift kits/jimny parts), their location and delivery scope (eg global)
