My Jimny named R&B

How not to do it this little off
broken mirror and nearly ripped snorkel off

You've had a full season and that's the first damage I've heard you speak of..... If that's the case, you've done very well mate.

Also hit a tree twice yes the same one within seconds
Planning some sort of external cage in my head (half cage)
tubular front and rear bumpers

Hate when trees jump out like that!

Made a start on internal rear door release mechanism


Need to make an attachment.
Then outside handle will be removed

So thinking of dramatic changes for R&B
Make a new front slam panel from 16x2 stainless tube
This can be made at work for free

Front protection bars from A pillar around the lights
with new front body mounts to make room for BIG tyres

Thanks to Dave for this image

Then some upper outer half cage



But then that ORA jimny ultra4 thing keeps popping up

I'll get across as soon as I can Jack, let you have a look at the WKD stuff and see if it is any good for you. My tray back kit was £500.

Matt at WKD said he has the Jimny all on CAD. so he should be able to follow those pictures and give you a price. I am considering a full challenge front end, almost landrover in style.

Dave Jones did well with "Tubebender" on eBay, getting some nice tube work for his car.

Has you know i have poorly dog and the vets stole a good amount of spare cash
When i can get time on jimny going to measure up and make myself a slam panel.
The front bar work will be a challenge to get all angles and rotations figured out.
I want it to be as continuous as possible less welding,Keithy as offered me a tube bender
And after getting the dogs first meds £60 for ten days on going.I think i will be making all the tube work myself
Just waiting on a reply from a Russian about some JB23 front wings,only part of my build i can't do
will be rolling the bars to go round my arches.
Going to be a slim jimny that can bounce of trees lol

Bummer about the vet bills, but friends come first....

Bender is still sat on the drive mate.

I like the idea of passing the roll cage through the bodywork!

Trayback it?

I can confirm the eBay 60ish pounds Megan calipers do fit jb rear disc conversion

Just need to attach brake lines and bleed

New seat's in with home made seat base 5" auto motive foam


Happy with the outcome and very comfortable
