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? cheers

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

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
