Halfords Dog-Taxi

Good news for sure .....

Glad you got that strut sorted. The jimny is looking more like a monster truck every time you post.

Glad you're it sorted mate

met up with Gaz in his reasonably priced jimny today :laugh:

changed some soft squidgy cracked bits for some new stiff ones :woohoo:





feels so much stiffer now, but have yet to get used to it :blink:

weird driving it as it's supposed to feel :laugh:

Are these the transferbox mounts? I checked mine recently and all seems okay but like a lot of things you dont know until you have removed them. How has it helped halford?

with the old ones you can squash the corners of metal plates together slightly, compressing the rubber (with its cracks and minor splits) , bit like a squidgy mallow biscuit.

with the new ones there's practically no give at all.

now I am not a [strike]dentist[/strike] spanner monkey, but it feels to me that this minor increase in rigidity had a major increase in car rigidity, driving on the road the car feel much tighter and more responsive, to try and explain the feeling it's like it used to go around a roundabout like a bus, lethargically yet controlled, whereas now it goes around like a mini - point and shoot, much easier to get the back end out

:laugh:

also re; the rear engine (gearbox) mount - the stick doesn't jump about so much and gear selection is easier as before, infrequently I'd miss a gear, but I'd put that down to the body lift and stick realignement, but it wasn't :whistle:
