Hey guys firstly my jimny bits 50mm extra articulation kit came in the mail today, so will be fitting it this weekend. Just looking for any feedback on this kit good or bad.

The kit includes the diff drop brackets, I understand that when you fit diff drop brackets that you need to overfill the diff to allow for the fact it rolls a little. Could anyone explain the process and how much extra diff oil is needed.

Oh I didn't say it's a 2004 grand vitara sport 2.5 auto

Thanks in advance

If you're that stressed. Jack the front up as much as you can or find a steep hill and fill it up.

it wont be much, just do as dan says... there is a service bulliten floating around stating how much to jack it/over fill it.

the later GV steel diffs actually have the fill hole moved up by about an inch.
