My new Samurai build/project

Post by AshR1 » Fri Apr 04, 2014 6:58 pm

Bought this the other day, my first zuk, 1300 samurai, I believe it has these mods;
. 2 inch lift tarantula leaf springs
. body lift (not sure of size)
. Snorkel
. 31x10.50 R15 109Q Malatesta Kaiman Tyres
. Vitara Fat Boy wheels
. Light Bar
. Cobra Bucket Seat
. Free Wheeling front hubs
. Power Steering (not quite complete though)
and maybe a few other things I dont know of.

Wont be long and I'll be fixing it and adding things I like to it, want to keep this as long as I can. And looking forward to some enjoyable times ahead in it! :doublethumbs: :doublethumbs: :doublethumbs:

Yes you can leave it on. I had one on my roof for years, no MOT problems and no plod worries either!

And nice SJ there!

Looks like a good solid base to start with!

And it's legal to have them fitted but illegal to use roof mounted lights on road.
