Hi All,
Recently I purchased an 04 Suzuki Jimny for my first proper 4WD overland vehicle. I use this as a daily at the moment but I do use two other cars. I instantly fell in love with the Jimny and couldn't wait to start modifying.
Not quite sure where to start but here we go.
This little Suzuki had quite a perky little M13A 1.3L DOHC 82bhp Petrol engine (I say had, because its no longer perky) and a proper 4WD system with 5 speed manual gearbox and a HI-LO transfer case with 2H (RWD), 4H and 4L.
The best thing about this particular Jimny was that i bought it late 2017 with only 29,000 miles on the clock and it has very little rust. Where I come from in the UK, rust is a big problem for any car but especially Jimny's which seem to lack in the underside corrosion protection of other vehicles.
The build so far consists of;
