Gaz's reasonably priced jimny..

After my trip to the lakes I had a damaged tyre replaced that with an insa sahara.also replaced the nsr wheel bearing as it was a bit noisey.used a better quality one than last time round.also after driving a few rocky sections I thought I really needed a fuel tank guard so rather than buy one I made one cost me £10 and some time caveman methods, grinder, hammer, drill.rather happy with result

Quick lick of metal paint

fitted

Still coming on nicely mate. Have you got a transfer box guard too?

Did Kingpin reply?

Kirkynut

Always something to do lol saving for a rocklobster next I reccon

kingpin paid for a new tyre thankfully.

Ive been running a home made transfer box guard but made a couple of changes recently.

Just seen you thread sorry to hear that hope you have a speedy recovery.

Couple more small updates.

Got hold of a rockwatt cradle off a mate

After my last trip to the lakes I got hung up on the back diff on a boulder sort of hidden in some mud.thinking nothing of it at the time untill i went to change the rear diff oil and noticed the ring around the drain plug flattened, so had a think about some form of skid plates after a bit of thought I had an idea, I had 2 bits of offcut from my winch tray bit of fettle and ive fitted them, bolt to the bolts that hold the diff in and ive welded them to the already welded on ora guards that protect the crown wheel.quick lick of black paint, hopefully should do the job.

Couple more updates

I knew this was looming but the dreaded tin worm needed attention in the boot,i knew when i got it there was a bit of rust but nothing too bad just about 2 years later and an mot looming soon it needed some repairs not as bad as i thought few patches and some paint and underseal later job done couple of pics.




Got hold of some ora panhard rods in good nick with recent fitted new rose joints i also got some spares aswell.fitted up and also replaced a track rod on the drag link when adjusting the steering wheel as there was a small ammount of play one less thing for mot time,also i noticed my front standard panhard have a very slight kink in it so that wont have been helping.
