Lower a jimny was created by laikathedog
Hello,

Standard jimny other than 32mm spacers.
My dog is too small to Make the leap into the back, or maye too lazy.
I am toying with all wearing the jimny.

I figure I will need custom springs and dampers, and that while you are all lifting; the same companies can supply the opposite ?

Or can you still get those bolt kits to clamp your spring together ?, haven't seen them since the 80's !

Any guidance appreciated ( other than replacing the dog !)

Get a fold up dog ramp and get it to walk up it

It is possable to lower it but it will ride like its driving over a wash bord all the time plus prop shaft may hit the tank and front axle may hit the sump

As said get a dog ramp. Plenty on ebay!! They're not expensive or make your own!
Any reason why you just can't lift the dog??

I started off high and worked my way down ever since :-)

A small dog, so it's along way down to lift it. And/or the owner is just a lazy as the dog :laugh: B)
