CORRECTION:

Here are the correct Monroe parts that you need for a Jimny with a 2" lift:
Correct part numbers of Monroe shocks for Jimnys with 2" of lift. Please see photos for reference. You will also need an additional two pieces of the bushing washer for the front shocks to fit well. The rears are supplied with bushing washers as far as I remember. Front #32126. Rear #31094

Thank you to crazy_boy for supplying the correct shocks.

I'm now selling the previous Monroe shocks. They are in brand new condition and will suit stock or up to 1" lifted Jimny units.

In other news, the radiator plastic top developed a cracked. We just opted to replace it as we cannot find a shop that was selling the plastic top only.

Tomsum replacement radiator. SRP 6k.

Yellow Monroes SRP for around Php1400ea.

I might get a lot of flames for posting this but Tenneco Automotive, the company that manufactures Monroe shocks, is also said to be the same company that manufactures shocks for Old Man Emu. Their springs are manufactured by King Springs if I recall right. I have OME on my Toyota it rides nicely. But I've never tried the OME set for the Jimny. I'm also running Ironman springs on the Jimny sir. The ride is ok for a Jimny as with any short wheelbase truck with solid axles. I wouldn't mind using it as a daily driver.

If you are running stock height or up to 1" of lift, you can buy my unused Monroes sir for a very fair price. However if you are running 2" lifted, better get the updated part numbers as supplied by crazy boy.

Sir for the 2" lift, did you need to change anything else, e.g. like in the steering rack, ball joint, etc? I would also like to go the same route with my Jimny
