Hehe.. Very cool. Nothing like a green Justy on a white backdrop with all 4 tires ablaze in the snow. A tribute to the depth of snow a Justy can handle without getting stuck, damn near past the bumper lip! Next time, disengage your 4wd and get some wicked ebrake slides in. Awesome video! -Terry

The real reason this goes so good is the 185 70 14" tires that give me about 9" of ground clearance.

No, a boxer will not fit in a Justy.

If you send me a message I can send you some pictures. I took them off the web and you cannot attach them to this message. I cut about 2" out on front and back fenders. Depending on which rims I use it was rubbing on the swing arm at the back and they had to be tweaked a bit to clear. I don't have a lot of clearance and the back will rub on a bump with back seat riders and a full tank of fuel.

No pictures necessary, I think you pretty much said it all.

I do not actually know the ratio but it is a 1991 and I did a Auto to Manual swap and moved the rear diff as well. I like the ratio for the highway as it was over reved before at about 3700 @ 100 km. It now sits about 3000 and I have to shift on the steeper hills. Mileage is good and power is OK. Not that I get to pass everyone anyway.

I moved the diff because I was told it was a different ratio from the Auto and 5 Speed.
The RPM difference is from the larger tires at highway speeds mostly.
