THANKS MAN ! it totally has to be my bushes making it so lame it is good in the rear because it makes it stiffer but it has pretty much killed the front i have my standard front arms which decent rubber bushes in them i will try to get them pressed out and swap them into my pimp arms ! then it should be sweet

As a comparison.

This is my 96 SJ80.

Stock arms, stock worn rubber bushes. Sway Bar removed, about a 40mm lift. Front lower strut mounts chopped off and rotated 90 degrees and remounted slightly higher on top of axle housing strengthening.

Image

With the shocks unbolted (i.e. it needs longer shocks) i can get another brick out of it without to many worries and i am sure cheating with tyre pressures would get a fraction more.

My 2000 jimny. 40mm Springs, 50mm Spacers, Tuff Dog Shocks.
I'm still playing around with it and will end up with a set of 90mm springs and some longer travel shocks.

I think the title should be changed on this thread.

"show us your dodgy ramps"


Bricks, tyres, planks of wood, ramp on ramp, a box trailer chassis. I mean seriously :lol:
