Hi all, I have a jimny and i like the look of a sierra more. Will the sierra body go on the jimny chassis?
wheelbase and other things that might be an issue?

SWB sierra 2030mm
Jimny 2250mm
LWB sierra 2375mm


So a sierra ute cab will work, but anything else will look stupid.

i see two realistic options

1, sell jimny and buy sierra
or
2, be happy with the jimny

or

3, waste time and money making a jimerra that looks whack

in saying that, i know a guy that has a LJ on a jimny chassy

Not quite what you're after but here is an LJ on a Jimny chassis -> viewtopic.php?f=4&t=12466

Lots of work, but an awesome result.

What is the reason for wanting to do a messed up swap like that?

sell the jimny, buy a sierra, and use the extra cash for mods

now if what u want is to have coils and/or to do a crazy mod thing, again: sell the jimny, buy a sierra, use the extra cash to buy crazy mods, and get some coils into sierra chassis and diffs. you would have something different, lots of time to build it, ull get coils, a better suspension setun (depending on wht u do) than either sierra or jimny, u would have the "sierra look", and youll have something stronger than a jimny.

for more info check monley LWB build
