I currently have a 2001 Suzuki Jimny its fully standard right now but i am looking into doing some mods to truly make it off road ready, the first thing I'm looking for is a complete suspension lift kit with all I would need to do a 3" lift I'm hoping you can help me find one if u know of any web sites or companies that do them, that i can order from please let me know.
Next is a back door for a hard top Jimny because i am making my soft to a into a semi hard top by placing on a back i bought from another Jimny
Engine mod pending once i can locate a 1600 Vitara as an organ downer
Oh yeah i forgot to mention i live in a little island in the Caribbean know as Barbados which makes shopping a little difficult but i am determined to get this little work horse really ready
Thanks

Don't know if any of them ship to Barbados, but could give them a go. Might be better off looking for American sites like lowrangeoffroad.com

ARB (OME) do a 2" kit, complete.
I don't think I'd recommend a 3" suspension lift for a jimny - I have seen some 3" springs in them and they weren't really happy.

try looking up oppisite lock they can do from a small lift to 5 inch to my knowledge, depending on how far you want to go depends on if you need lower control rams or not.

Been researching the 3 inch jimny lift myself latly for a friend.
You can put your stock front springs in the rear and 3 inch lifted springs in the front to get 3 inches of lift. You will also need castor correction bushes (3 degress I think), adjustable panhard rods, longer brake lines and of course longer shocks.

If you type
www.Apio.jp in google search.You will find
www.Apio.jp and it has a function that you can choose to get the website translated for you.
However if you go directly to the website without finding it through google search ,you won't be able to get it translated.

Looking to do a 3" body lift right now but if o try the spring switch front to rear and buy new 3' front that's a 6' total lift that will make it a little to unstable don't u think unless i get 3' wheel spacers
