SJ glass is still available mate, you could have it replaced under your insurance

If you have got full comp insurance it should only be about £60

Hi mate that is one fantastic LJ I want on :mrgreen:

few questions with regards to the fitting of the V6, Do you reckon it would fit it in a suzuki sj with out widening the whole truck??

Do the V6 diff's just pop into the sj axles??

What mods are required for the chassis to get the V6 and the gearbox to fit??

The wiring for the V6 was it straight forward or something that I could do?? (im ok on wiring not the best but ok)

Once again what an amazing build!!!
