I am more intrested in watching the ostrich, sorry I missed your conversation.
Australia gets Bridgestone dueller 195/80/15 HT as standard. I'm using those tyres on a vw caddy. My cousin put 225/75r15 MT on her Jimni and I got her standard tyres for free. I needed new tyres and wanted more ground clearance so the taller tyres are great for me. I'll put All Terrains on the van next. My cousins Jimni feels like shit onroad with her new tyres but it's a great offroad option. Me personally I'd buy a set of steel wheels for the mud terrains for offroading on weekends and keep the standard for onroad, or put All Terrains on
225/75r15 mud terrains are great offroad but not onroad. If you mainly use the vehicle onroad stick with a size closer to OEM
Would 235 BF At's work with the 40mm Tough Dog suspension, or would 225's be a better choice? Or should I replace my 40 mm with the 60 mm? I just got the 40 mm installed and have the 215's for tires but I would like a little better off road performance so I am considering a little larger tire size. I do not however want to start over with a new suspension if not necessary since it may be quite costly but I appreciate your recommendations... Thanks for your great Videos Raymond!

Hi, I want to know using tough dog on highway and there’s uneven pavement or patches road, is the steering feed back harsh? Because tough dog is harder than the original suzuki.
So many jimmy’s with the same colour…😂😂😂
Yeah, that Toyota colour. My cousin has one.
The right size comparison should be with the 235/70R15, no??!
Hi , the 215/75R15 is still my pick for best all round performance and best consumption👍🏻
@@justjimny yes, that size has the less amount of interference, from the original. In terms of overall size.
Very capable little goats.
How about 16 inch rims? Any comments ?
You will have to look at a tyre size calculator and compare 15 inch rims with 16 inch rims and the size of tyres you want to fit , stay as close to 215/75R15 .
15 seconds 0-100 km, in dirt terrain??? how much does it do on road???
On road its a bit faster , since its in 2x4 and has more traction.
May I know if there is a L bracket securing the snorkel to the body? I can’t see clearly.
Yest there is one bracket that secures it to the a pillar.
Nice video , what tyres are those ? The type of tyre does play a key role when dropping pressures n de-beading. I have 31x10.5 maxxis 764 , I take the pressure to 0 and the side wall is still strong enough to support the weight of my zuk . I wouldn't dare try this stunt with a HT tyre.
Its BF Goodrich AT KO2
Hey Ray, Good video. Could you comment on how good are 225/70/r15 tyres on the jimny, with stock suspension.
Hi , the 225 is no much bigger than the 215 , so you should be ok with them on stock suspension. The stock suspension is a bit spongy in my experience so upgrading just the shocks will improve the ride alot.
What happen to tthis channel? no new videos for months
Why did u stop makin videos mate?😢
Hi just on a bit of a break my day job is really keeping me busy at the moment.
I am really looking forward to seeing your competent and informative videos, in the near future. Keep up your great content 👍
nice video sir.what is the size of your rim and tire?
Hi rims where 15 inch and tyres 235/75
Hi Sir. Kindly suggest me the tyre upgrade for Jimny for better Fuel Efficiency. Because I will use it mostly in Highways Only.
If you are looking for good fuel consumption stick to the original tyre size.
Hi Raymond, you may have had this question before and apologies if I missed it. Overhead console & two-way radios - what do you recommend? Thanks for the channel and eagerly awaiting more on the new 5-door!!
No problem at all , Toug Dog or Opposite Lock does have a nice roof console availible for the Jimny , that has space for a radio and handset , but that does come at a cost , and you will need an anual license for the radio. The other option is Vlakvark radios no license required but only for short distances.
When are we getting videos of the 5 door Jimny?
Still a bit busy with my day job , but as soon as I have a gap I will post my review.
Now I'm "enlightened", much appreciated, thank you Sir.
Glad I could help
The "Steep" hill going up is like my driveway...Honestly you just need better clutch control. Also, the way the other guy was going down the steep descent looked like he knew nothing about driving off-road.
Uphill and downhill looks very flat on video , so I hope if you have a driveway like that , all your cars need to be 4x4.
only talking talking
How else would I get the information to you?
I would love watch it again with both cars using the same tire. Looks like the manual is using a more offroad capable one.
Both Jimnies had All Terain tyres , it wont make such a big differance in my opinion.
Absolutely worth every cent!
Still think at the price its worth it.
Hey man, I miss your videos, what's up?
I have been a bit busy with our move to the Western Cape , and with that an increase in the amount of travwling I am doing for my day job. So getting time to shoot videos and editing them has been reduced alot. As soon as things calm down again , I will do more videos. Thanks for the support👍🏻
@@justjimnythat's so great to hear! I have recently bought a jimny and your videos and advice a superb! Thanks for all the great content and can't wait to you have time to make more!!
@@countless0426 Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻
I believe throttle pedal can damage on Engine badly and it will reduce life of Engine. Am I right?
It has no effect on the engine , the Jimny has a drive by wire system on the throttle the only thing the controller does is change the sensitivity of the throttle.
What was the stock size in your jimny?
Stock the Jimny was on 195/85/15
Has anyone tried the Apollo 225/70/15
Have not heard of any reviews
The very tyre i am about to order and try
mate .. how about 225/75 any mod needed ? lift kit or cut wheel arc ?
Hi , 225 wil work with no issues on standard suspension , no cutting or trimming required.
@@justjimny thanks brother 🤝
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
How to open the cover of the dip switch?
Just use a flat screw driver and carefully slide in in the seem between the 2 covers.
@@justjimny thx u for the reply.. you mean slide in our slide out?
Dear Mr. Raymond, good afternoon! What a cool comparison. In Brazil the names are different for the JB74. The GA = 4You (2 versions: manual transmission and automatic transmission). Then come 3 other versions, all with automatic transmission only. I have a question, with no link to the CZcams in question: I have a Jimny JB74 with manual transmission (4You MT, equivalent to Australia's GA) and I've only driven 2,500 km... it's still brand new... but the reverse gear is always makes noise and inaccuracy when engaging... is this normal? I've already tried raising the rpm before engaging... pressing the clutch to shift into 1st gear before shifting into reverse... nothing changes the unpleasant engagement of reverse gear. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you in advance for your education and patience. Best regards from Brazil.
Dear Mr. Raymond, good afternoon! What a cool meeting/outing. I congratulate those present at the event.

Hi , thanks for the support. I think you should take the Jimny back to the dealership and let them check it out , some have reported this problem , and Suzuki must solve it.
@@justjimny Thank you very much! Best regards!
Thank you Mr. Raymond. I'm from Brazil. Recently I bought and Suzuki Jimny Manual transitions green like yours. In Brazil it is called Suzuki Jimny Sierra 1 5 4You MT. Tank you for your videos. Regards!
Thank you for the support , the Green ones are the best😂
Sorry but, your driving skills are questionable here , if you have a rollback , while starting uphill. Also that engaging of handbrake!!? You need to be better with your heel n toe. I was bad at it when i was in my 12-13s i got chided and slapped on my head for it. Not had a jimny for 2 decades now, i envy you. I'll go for a auto this time (dont know when), i want to save some knees 😂.
I had to demostrate what happens😂
Is your Jiminy standard
Hi , no its not standard anymore , but did not go overboard with extras that weigh down the 1500 engine.
I just want to start by saying great video and you guys put out some quality content. Due to yourselves and a couple other content creators, I’ve recently decided to give this automotive content creation a go - with my old blue JB43 taking centre stage. I was wondering if you might have some tips on what might get my content out there? Again, keep up the great work and thanks for taking the time to read my comment 👍
Thanks for the support , I guess the best advice I can give you is just get started with your channel and first video , cell phones work great for pics and video , once you need a better camera look at the DJI Osmo cameras they are great , then editing I use Shotcut , which is free software. So get that first video up👌
Hello Mr Raymond. Firstly, I would like to thank you for your reports and responses on your CZcamss and reviews I'm from Brazil... preparing my retirement after 42 years of work. In my youth, in the 80s, I had a Toyota Bandeirantes (in Brazil this was the name given to the 1st Land Cruiser). I did the maintenance myself. Decades have passed... 4x4 vehicles are no longer produced in Brazil (we had a multitude of excellent manufacturers of 4x4 vehicles, military and civilian). The result is that we have to import 4x4 cars, paying the price of gold (in Brazil, in direct conversion, I paid US$ 32,000.00 for a Jimny JB74 manual transmission). Preparing for my retirement I bought a Jimny JB74 Sierra 1.5 L (K15B engine). I would like to know where I can get a service manual for the Jimny JB74 so I can maintain it (I plan to keep it for 20 years) Thank you very much in advance for CZcams Regards!
Think you made a great choice , I am not certain where you can find the service manual , but I will ask around for you.

@@justjimny Dear Mr. Raymond! Tank you very much. That's an excelent material. Tank you very much. Regards from Brazil!
Thank you for the video. I decide to go with the same kit of suspensions. 👍🏼🙏🏼
Good choice!
With Regards to the throttle controller. I've installed a power plus controller on my automatic. Which setting is best for someone like myself whos driving involves long distance travel with over taking, long gravel roads and very limited urban usage? I've got it set on auto mode, how long does it take to adapt to your driving style? Love your videos by the way 🙂.
Hi thank you for the support , I drive my manual in eco mode 90% of the time , I switch to sport mode for thick sand and dunes. On the Auto I would suggest sport mode but adjust the sensitivity to suit your driving.
Hi Raymond, I have a 2022 Jimny auto, and have installed the following: Front runner roof rack, Des Sol diff and transfer case protectors and breathers, Snorkel, radial cups, Des Sol rock sliders. I have recently installed the new Des Sol 50mm suspension upgrade which comes with their new shocks. 8 year guarantee. I'm astounded with the ride improvement! Is there any way you could do an updated suspension comparison?
I will have a look , currently a bit busy with work , but will keep it in mind.
@@justjimny Hi Raymond, I have exactly the same question! Based on your great in-depth reviews of the 40 mm Toughdog I was sure that is what I would fit to my new Jimny, but of course they pre-date the Des-Sol Ev1s. I would be very greatful to hear your thoughts on these as well as what you think about the fact that they use progressive springs. Do you think that this is a good thing where the springs are softer on initial bump and then get stiffer? Some people argue that for off-road you actually want digressive movement. i.e. it gets more compliant towards full bump, but I don't think anyone offers this in a lift kit, just single spring rates instead. The people that argue against progressive springs say that because the suspension moves more with a bump, being softer for the initial hit, you're quickly into the stiffer spring rate anyway and therefore the suspension can actually feel stiffer than with the same movement with a single spring rate. Thoughts?
Hi Mark, how are finding the Des-Sol EV1 50 mm lift kit?
Thanks mate, very useful. Just ought JB43 2005 and tire advice was more than useful. I went with Toyo Open Country 215/75/15 and let's see. Cheers
Great to hear!
What is that quarter roof rack? Why did you decide to cut your into this size? What are you using it for? :)
Its actually a half rack , the full rack really influenced the fuel consumption , and I dont do enough long trips these days to justify a full roof rack.
Excellent video 👍👍
Thanks for the visit
what is the tyre size of your tyre ???
215/75R15
Nice overview, You are 100% these packing systems are adding 20-30kg , the problem with most these accessories they not engineered to be light and strong, they using steel and plywood and are bulky .Unfortunately lots of these designs are hand me downs where weight and space were not important.Roof top tents are over 330mm in height and weigh between 50 and 80kg.There is no reason they cannot be engineered to be 150mm and weight of 25kg.
Thanks for sharing
I think Grabbers a better option in particular that on tar in wet the BF is dangerous.
You do get use to them in the wet , but mine are due for replacement , looking at the Maxxis worm drive.
Installing BFG M/T Km3 in the 215 size would that give the grip level and performance of the 235 AT.
The MT KM3 has much better grip than the KO2 AT , they should be great off road.
