In this episode of Restore It, I restore a friend's 1999 Suzuki Jimny rear axle. This has to be one of the rustiest things I've had in my workshop. I believe it was found in a pond in the UK. Not to worry! With the new workshop, I have this thing brought back to life in no time.

A quick one to help you save those lenses. Cut a sheet of thick acrylic into squares and notch the edges so you can hook elastic bands through the sheet and over the body of the camera. You can use blu-tac on the lens edge to hold the acrylic in place. It'll stop that grinding dust from hitting the lens and is so close to the front element that the camera will just ignore it until it is REALLY dirty.

@@SalandFindles No. A Panhard rod is NOT a "sway bar". Completely different. Panhard rod controls/reduces the side to side movement of the rear axle, thus keeping it in the same place laterally. Whereas an anti-roll bar (mistankenly often called a sway bar) controls and reduces body roll during hard cornering.

That was an amazing transformation! If you don't own one already, a needle scaler is an amazing tool to cut through heavy rust scales quickly (it just hammers off everything remotely loose) so your blaster doesn't have to do the heavy lifting. It would have been perfect for the third member as well as it will remove what a wire brush won't cut. They're just noisy as hell so I'm sure my neighbors love mine :D I've pretty much the same 250A MIG welding machine minus the little display and spool gun connector and it's been faithful for the last 7 years, I definitely don't regret buying it. But those repair sections you put in the trailing arm brackets are structural and have enough thickness that they don't need a stack of tacks, you should really do continuous sections of welds here.

When I first saw the condition of the rear end, I said NO WAY..! Brother did you show me a thing or two. I'm speechless, I can say it can't get any better than that. Great job... BRAVO..! I was working in Guam and the company gave me a Suzuki Jeep to drive, it was a fun 4 wheeler. Believe it or not it was the color of the reddish orange primer you used. No doors, no windshield, no top, no tailgate, only two seats. 100° so when it rained it felt good. They were illegal in California, 1989 time. I never saw one in California. Impressive you surprised me.

Great job. Only two criticisms (besides the mechanical issues already discussed); 1) I probably would have taken the opportunity to tap a 1/8" BSP thread into the breather. Your friend may want to install a breather extension in future. This could be something the Mechanic can do while his 2) The centre spacer of the Caster Correction bushes would need to be correctly positioned by the mechanic when the 2" lift is installed.

Awesome restoration. Love what you did. One suggestion, don't take apart the rear gear like you did. The rear bearings needed to be measured to be put back in the exact spot that they were in before with the proper backlash. Now that differential will have a whirling noise from it. Even if the mechanic can adjust the backlash, it will not be in the exact same place it was before since it wasn't measured.

Some serious effort there mate and flawless finish. You mentioned about the mechanic being the one responsible if the brakes fail. The same can be said of the welded suspension mounts. I’m not an expert (I weld, not amazing but I get by) and I’m not trying to be a bell end but those welds look super cold and no real penetration. I wonder (I’m sure an expert will correct me soon) if things like this should be MIG welded at all. And then grinding away the majority of the weld just made me nervous. Hopefully I’m well wrong and it’ll last forever. And like I said before beautiful flawless finish though mate 👍👍👍

In my country we use axles from Vitara to run Jimny or 410/413. And engine swap to 1.6 - easiest option probably.

Great work! One question - shouldn't trailing arm bushings be torqued with suspension loaded?

Thanks and correct! I had the page up on the laptop and was just doing everything. All for show as this is going to be rebuild/setup correctly by a pro mechanic before its installed.

One advice is always good to rotate nut first less friction etc... When you rotate bolt you can snap it. Dont aske how i know 😂

A rather fancy restoration for under carriage. It'll be the dirtiest parts of the car when it serves the purpose. Anyway, great job, and thanks for sharing the video.

Cant get over the look of the oil you drained, like new, would expect black worn oil going by the outer condition of the differential, suppose its from a BMW 🤤

Great to watch. Serious question - Why two coats of two part epoxy primer? The body work primer is the first point of contact with the steel. Also what sort of design is that putting the bearings on the shaft? Especially on a 4x4 vehicle. You would have to go through all that to replace the back plate if it got banged up.

It is a very common setup to have the bearings on the axle shaft, it is simple and cheap, most of the 4x4 vehicles use this setup one way or another in their solid axles

I did two coats to ensure good coverage, as they were tricky to paint. I may have the bodywork primer, but that is a thin layer. The epoxy primer is the one doing the real protection, it's incredibly tough. Cheers.
