From Sj to jimny help ??

Post by dunnin21 » Wed Jul 17, 2013 3:12 pm

Right guys iv decide on getting a jimny instead of my beloved Sj. Question is what parts can I use from Sj that will be compatible for jimny. I no I can use freewheeling hubs, steering damper, possibly shocks ? Also is the 413 transfer box useable.thanks in advance Andy

Transfer box is. Not sure if it is a bolt on swap but SJ boxes are much stronger.

Shocks should be, my back back ones came off a jimny and the fronts look the same.
