Ok so I have a 2008 Suzuki Jimny VVT, manual, push button transmission.

All the mechanics are stock.

I'm putting some mud tyres on the stock wheels (alloy 15" x 5.5").

Do I need to upgrade the transfer case? Is it absolutely essential?
What will happen if I choose not to?

Can anyone recommend and All-on-one kit that I'd be able to install?

I've got access to the tools I'd need and I have a stock t-case thats only done 20000Kms. Is there a modification that someone can recommend that means I dont need to buy another t-case.

Cheers

Most likely it'll be a set of Maxxis Bighorn MTs.

You'll be looking at 2" with a fair bit of trimming or 3-4" with minimal trimming for that size as thats what iv got ;)

Whats the best and neatest way to trim it?


and with the 2" lift, are there any other changes I'll need to make?

camber correction? etc?

plenty of threads on the trimming situation mate have a search, i find it better to use google rather than the search on here as its generally better and usually returns results from here anyway.

extended brake lines (especially if you remove the ARB for maximum flex), some people fit caster correction bushes some dont, not sure if adjustable panhards are needed on a 2"lift someone will clarify what else is needed.
