I was looking for the better protection offered by this bumper, The local ARB representative told me it weighed 40kg (without winch), so I will expect something like 60 to 70kg with a winch (still searching hard to find a small good one). I tested with a 70kg above the front hood and it resulted in a 19mm lowering, even though it is set with OME heavier (petrol) springs and shocks.

Now I am in doubt if I risk this crossing point (loosing the suspension performance puting a spring spacer) or if its best to forget this bumper....maybe I have to go for a higher car.....

Regards,

Nelson

Probably the best was to choose the ARB front springs for the diesel Jimny.... :(
