Using this as the moment before it’s run out to wiltshire. Oil, filter and plugs done. Had oil peeing out of a rear hub, fitted a new seal. Hoping thats sorted it. Swapped the rear drive flanges to 10.9 bolts, loctite and spring lock washers! Should stop them coming loose Got a clutch release bearin...

Try this.

Much easier if your running a 1.6 vitara motor too.

Unlikely they have been put in there deliberately, that would be utter stupidity.

Sadly i’d say something in the diff isn’t as well bolted together anymore as it was originally.

Probably worth stripping the diff for a look inside, i know i would be.

Depends what you bought?

Got pictures?

Original was all metal with vertical lats.

Later versions were a metal surround with plastic grill.

I would think any of the many vinyl sticker/ car wrapping places could match the originals for you.

I’m well chuffed Robbie, revived for another year.

Depends what kind of grill.

The original metal grill with the vertical slots? Or a plastic grill?

They are all interchangeable with a varying levels of work.

The decals are a nightmare to get off.

Hair dryer / heat gun, try and warm the glue up and peel off with a sharp scraper.

Failed first MOT. Too loud, worn steering joint.

Added an extra silencer, tightened up the steering joint. MOTd today, good to go!

Same loom as hard top? Could have possibly gone to heated rear window?

Central locking not wired in? Not working?
