Any plans for a suspension upgrade and wheels/tyres? It’s sort of refreshing to see one not lifted 6 inches with 37s haha
@NorthOz
@NorthOz День назад
I plan on adding additional leafs to the existing pack to help with the load on the back. Will keep the stock wheels and might get new ones in the future. I actually like the stock height and the 33’s look good but will opt for a wider tyre after these get worn out. The fuel economy on these are so good too!

There is a black smith in cairns can add extra leaf,. I was thinking to change to 285 tyre, but need add flair kit, not sure I am manage to do it myself so I stay on standard size new tyre instead.

Thanks for the great videos! Appreciated. I like that some of them are based on a reasonable amount of ownership and use, as compared to someone borrowing a new car for a day and more or less just run through the items mentioned in the spec. Great work. I have a question about the shark skin seat covers. I've had a dealership telling me to not put covers on leather seats, something about the stitching digging into the leather, or putting the stitching under too much stress and causing damage. Anything you've come across? Have you removed any of your covers and noticed anything to back up this claim? Thanks! :)

GUYS : THE REAR WHEEL ON THE DOOR CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT!!!!! You have less view due the rear wheel. And have more distance behind to care when you use the reverse. DO NOT BUY WITH THE WHEEL ON THE REAR DOOR!!!
@leonardoguzman5023
@leonardoguzman5023 7 дней назад
I bought the PRADO 2023, with the wheel back on the door. NOT GOOD due it cut the entire view behind. I find Easy to have an accident due, one can see less behind through the rear window and also one have a distance over the rear door then you can have a crash in reverse, even using rear camera. My Conclusion : NOT GOOD DUE CAN PRODUCE AN ACCIDENT!!!!

Just bought a new rogue, absolutely love it. I was contemplating getting a mine spec underbody rust protection, 10 year warranty at $995. I’d it worth doing? I live in Brisbane and heat the beaches every couple of months. Or should I do what you did and focus on a good clean afterwards?
@NorthOz
@NorthOz 8 дней назад
Nice work mate! You’ll love it. Its hard to know as I’m not sure what product they’ll use as there are many rust preventions out there (see me videos on rust prevention). If you will be doing a lot of beach of work, some rust prevention is better than nothing. I like to use lanolin based products and spray the chassis and components down after every trip. But if you want a “set and forget” setup, then a professional job might better for you 👍

Below the windscreen pillar there is a removable part of the body for a slimline factory fitted snorkel if you dnt want to drill a hole into your Jimnys body for an aftermarket snorkel. Hope your mom enjoys her jimny. I've just done my honeymoon trip 4000km to Cape Town. Fully packed averaged 14km per litre. Not to bad. And boy did I need a Jimny some places we went. Best 4x4 out there. Have fun doing some mods 👍👍👍

​@@NorthOz yeah it is a bit low but try change the settings and you mite find a happy medium. One thing I've been trying to do is upload a personal screensaver through USB stick. I've found lots of videos online but just not coming rite. The suzuki baleno has the same infotainment system and you can do it in that, just not working on the Jimny. But otherwise the information system is a big upgrade from previous 3 door.

I don’t see how it would impact the ability to open the glass door. If anything it would make loading things through the glass door easier with the loading area being elevated. No weight rating as it’s pretty solid. I wouldn’t go putting your dumbbells on there just in case
