    New Suzuki Jimny 2015 with Stability control and traction control

    I've a 2000 soft top 1.3 petrol one with a 2.5 inch lift and some pretty big tyres,and I wouldn't say it felt overly "tippy" compared to anything else. They are bone shakers on standard suspension,and that gets worsened by lifting it. Think the main reason for the bounce shimmy you get with them...

    4M40 2.8TD and solid front axle into GEN1 Montero

    You'll be bankrupted if you drive at 75mph with a 2.8td,mine will cruise at that speed,but the fuel gauge moves even faster,at 50mph I can get about 26 - 30 UK MPG which isn't awful really. Mine has been ever so slightly tweaked with the boost and fuelling turned up,EGR blanked, 2.5" stainless...

    Why Your Next 4WD Should be a Right Hand Drive

    It's hard to drive your own RHD car in a LHD country because you've built up a habit for driving and do it nearly instinctively,but you break into it fairly quickly. The worst part is overtaking,parking and merging with traffic. TBH i'd be slow to drive a LHD car here every day,it would get...

    ^^ I think it has a modest body lift,and the wheels are the proper offset so they miss everything That cactus in the background is so cool,I'd give a nut to have one of them in my garden

    new to me gen 1 swb 4d55 swapped

    God yes! All vehicles are awesome,yet some people are just stupidly ignorant and blinkered. There isn't a "best",nothing wrong with some friendly banter,I rip on my buddys land rovers because they're constantly breaking,and they rip on my paj for 3 wheelin' around everywhere,but it's fun,we're...

    The old 1999 build thread

    I love this truck,everything is on it for a reason,and you're not afraid of kicking the crap out of it I had 2 sets of jdm swb light surrounds that I threw out a month ago,could have given them to a good home stateside

    New to me 1998 Gen 2.5 - strange occurence when going into 4low w/diff lock

    I don't know if it happens In the states,but here you'll get water settle in the silencers,either from it just being atmospheric condensation or from rain driving into the exhaust,and from letting the kind of children that shove the hose pipe into the exhaust wash it :rolleyes: Could be the...

    Mine used look just like that Rock_shoes ,Did a bit of fiddling with the pump and turbo and it improved it tenfold,but it didn't have the smoothness or power you get with a petrol. though it came on boost like an antichrist. Towing a 6000Kg trailer it overheated last year,filled it with water...

    Body Lift or not?

    I did a body lift on mine,couldn't fit the 35" tyres without it,didn't really want to do it,always thought they were for posers. It wasn't too hard of a job,but I had to remove the vac pipe bracket for the brake booster,the plug popped off my injector pump as I was driving down the road and the...

    1998 Mitsubishi Pajero EVOLUTION...

    I got a spin in one a few years ago,my friends father had one,what a machine,first corner it went around was totally different to my shortie,which was standard. Then on the straight and it absolutely ripped,revved to something crazy,and moved at a savage pace,and went around bends at least twice...

    Ball joint flip

    Instead of having the Ball joint go through the upper wishbone,it is under,and only the bolts go through the wishbone. I wouldn't do one personally,strikes me a being fairly dangerous when you see the diameter of the bolts,and the thickness of the wishbone,I get visions of the bolts getting...

    Why can't we have New Montero here?

    My guess is that there are already too many similar 4x4s available there for it to be worth their while getting it to meet all the safety requirements to sell it in the States. Over here they're very popular because the only other competition is the 120 or 125 LC the Disco 4 and then the likes...

    quick question for those running 35's

    Is it true that pulling up the handbrake one click so the light comes on disables the ABS? Heard it but it sounds like it could be a myth too. Worth a try though. Mine tows alright on 35s,but it isn't great,but it would be a fair bit heavier than a camping trailer. Worst thing is the hitch gets...

    quick question for those running 35's

    I don't think there anywhere that high up over here,but my 35s would be much heavier and more aggressive than the average M/T in a 35. Mine will stay at 55Mph up a 5 mile hill that is fairly unforgiving to small engined petrol cars,but you can forget about doing any overtaking with them on. What...

    Scrubber Blade

    I find going over the windscreen with a razor does a great job,with a bit of polishing,it makes it super clean and smooth,which makes it a harder surface for stuff to stick to. If you look up "razorblading windscreen" you'll get a few instructions to doing it,and it makes a world of a...

    Suspension Lift/ Spring Spacer and Cranked Torsion Bar Guys... LONGER SHOCKS?

    I've ironman +2" ones from a 95 series LC on mine,they have a larger range of travel than the +2" pajero ones,only issue I have is they are a small bit on the under damped side. I went for rough country ones on my suzuki and they are the business! I had the standard shocks in with the lift...
