Hi, new member here.
Just got back into having a SJ after many years.
Was looking at getting a standard one and doing it up but then one came along almost as I wanted it.
Would have been silly not to get it.
Will have to do stuff to it though to make it mine.
Anyone else on here in the Northampton area?
Will.

Welcome to the forum, looks really tidy and solid! Just a tad tall in my opinion, but I do like my SJs with minimal lift though, if the tyres still clear without the body lift I think it would feel a lot more stable offroad

I think it looks great, I bet you feel king of the road when your driving that eh? what lift does it have? I'm guessing it's the 5" Calmini reverse shackle lift with a body lift? I have to say IMHO the calmini kit is a better option than SPOA, more pics?

Spot on Tramp, calmini 5" with about 1 1/2" body lift.
ScottieJ, love the look of yours.
Dont think mine will ever see any serious off road use. Just a toy for road, green lane and getting to my shooting ground.

Haha good guess! The calmini sticker in the window gave it away
What do you think to the Calmini kit? I have the 3.5" kit and its was quite hard, I also had a bit of lean going on where the drives side sat lower than the passengers, did you have this?
