  • How to Choose 4x4 Lights - Should you get driving lights or a light bar? What are the typical issues that occur with 4x4 lights? Which specifications should you pay attention to and which ones are just marketing tricks, including raw vs effective lumens and lux, etc.? Should you get LED lights or should you consider Halogen, and others? Installation Guide - How to do the wiring so you connect and sync your driving lights or light bar to the high beam of your 4WD? How the installation differs between Japanese vehicles and American or European cars? See what I chose for the Hilux and an honest long-term review of Auxbeam’s driving lights.

    You have the best Jimny related videos on the web definitely sir.
    *Question* You have manual locking hubs on your Jimny, do you have the pushbutton transfer switch or the Sierra transcase installed instead?
    I was wondering if it's possible to run manual hubs and keep the electric T-case?
    My Jimny's T-case is acting up, I don't think it's the lines because I recently serviced the kingpins and made sure the orifice that vacuums the hubs was clear.
    I think it's either the sensor or the hub seals like you mentioned probably.
    Thank you for your fantastic videos, it's a pleasure to watch these because you are a gentleman and take your 4x4ing seriously.

      Hey mate, thanks for the nice words!
      You will always be better of with manual hubs from a genuine brand.
      The function of the transfer case switch has nothing to do with the hubs, you can keep the t-case. The electric ones could have an issue with a wire or sensor though.

    I like your lights, they look nice and seem sk give a lot of light. I can recommend the Osram FX 500 CB SM. It is a single mount lightbar with 2x REF 25 rating, E4 and ECE 112 certificate. So you can run this lighbar legally in whole of Europe if your cars lights have less than 2x REF 25 highbeams. The combo beam pattern means it does also give you some light to the side.

      I've been told that many brands actually use Osram lights and chips - just put their name on it at the end. So it makes sense that their products will be good. 😉 Thanks for the recommendation, I will check it out.

    Good idea has formed in your head, but wouldn't it be better if the additional lights were on a separate button?

    • @The4x4Lab

      There is a separate switch ;) when the switch is on, they turn on with the high beam, when it's off, they are off

    Здравей, благодаря за информацията много е изчерпателна. Искам да си поръчам като твойте, но не мога да се ориентирам в сайта. Как се казват точно този модел. Благодаря

      Привет, радвам се, че ти е било полезно.
      Това е моя модел auxbeam.com/collections/9-led-driving-light/products/zd000675
      За жалост доставката до България е скъпа, но според мен накрая сметката пак е по-добра от алтернативите от сходен клас, които са по 2000лв.

    За жалост английския ми не е на толкова технологично ниво и не мога да разбера всичко. Ако правиш клиповете на български и добавяш английски субтитри (или пък поне да добавяш нашенски субтитри) ще ти бъда много благодарен. Търся такъв тип клипове на български, за да ъпгрейтна джипката, но никой не се занимава да обяснява толкова. Доста информация даваш и го правиш да изглежда лесно, продължавай все така и късмет с канала!
