Sweet Suzuki! Love your mods, got some inspiration for my own Sukie :)

Not much happening these days with the jimmers. Been fixing my pick up, which is finally ready to sell! Anyways. Have fixed a bit of rust. Love the new rust converter stuff I bought :P Found out that the car has been in a crash too. Went to install some recovery points, and the front of the...

Cheap mod is remove bsck seats and make some nice storage options. Or just a flat floor. And then a 2" lift and bigger tires! I would also consider manual hubs, as the vaccum system will eventually fail. Better to just have the hubs, then having to replace vaccum lines from time to time :) They...

Our plan was to go stand up padling today, but the weather is shit! Went to a town and visited a viking museum in stead. Luckily the weather is a lot better now. My tent isn't the strongest in the rain :) Met a cool old citroen at the museum :) A nice village Camping here for the...

Sounds like she needs new king pin bearings. Google death wobble and jimny :) lots of info on it. Mine does not have this problem yet.

Not much driving today. Been climbing mountains :)

Out and about. Doing some exploring.

The boat over Vestfjorden took a bit over 4 hours. Landed in Å.

Only have one week of vacation this year, and I am spending it in Lofoten with my GF. The car is packed and we are ready to explore :) This thread will be updated with picturea of beautiful northern norway scenery. But for now, only a picture of a car ready to go :P

Bodø is lovely! Well worth a visit :) Most people come here to fish in Saltstraumen or just pass on their way to Lofoten. But there is lots of stuff to see. We are a few Norwegians here, looking at the map and judging by the facebook group :)

It is! Plan is a 2" lift and 235/75-15 tires. My only issue is that lifting is illegal in Norway, unless you buy a kit with approval papers from some german company. Cheapest I can find is 1500$. I have found cheaper black lift springs and trying to figure out if I can use shocks from another...

Completed the dual battery setup today! Just in time. We're going away tomorrow, to leave the dog with my mom. Back Sunday to get the car and then on to a ferry that will take us to Lofoten. Wired the batteries together with a 500A relay. And then connected a hub to the new battery. So...

It is a lovely little car! I'm 191cm, and still got plenty of room in it. It comes with 4 seats(removed the two rear ones on mine). 1.3L petrol engine, with 80hp. So not very fast.. haha. Can also get it with a renault diesel, but sadly not in Norway. Weight: 1100kg. Part time 4x4, with...

Leaving for Lofoten in a week. Been stressing to get the car ready. Work has gotten in the way of progress :/ I have redone the rear of the car. Made a better frame for the shelf system. It is now level :P I am going to make a removable floor for the bit missing. So that I can easily get to...

Ordered lots of stuff today! New kingpin bearings for one side, with all needed gaskets. New brake discs and dust shields(the shields are rusted beyond any repair). And most importantly I ordered some recovery points for the front. They won't be needed any time soon. Will need a lift and some...

Hello :) This is my little Suzuki. It's going to be used for pure off roading, and overlanding! Used to have a mazda b2600, but it was big and I could not get any upgrade parts for it that would keep it road legal here in Norway... I've had my Jimny for almost 2 weeks now. Already love it to...

Sweet job on the arches, looks good!

Hello :) Checking in from Norway. Slowly working on building my old Mazda b2600 into a overlanding vehicle.
