With a standard jimny transferbox and 2" bodylift I just bent the lever slightly with serious heat.

With the Rocklobster I have now that was a little more tricky.

Sorry to highjack this thread but is there anything to change on a 05> Jimny wihen doing a body lift with regards to the tbox? as it's electronic?

Not ever played about with a 05> jimny but as there is no transfer box lever it will be a much simpler task.

You might want to check your ABS wires on a newer Jimny if your doing a body lift. My truck has a 3" suspension lift and when my axles are articulating fully the ABS sensor wires are getting tugged rather tightly, thats assuming you have ABS obviously.

Nylon lift blocks(if that's the case) are as good or better than aluminum ones because they don't corrode, so I wouldn't worry about that much.

Although, it's a good chance to return the set, and decide to go only with a suspension lift...
