looking good

, but not to sure about the roof , but hey thats my opinion nothing to worry about there

The roof came with it when i bought it and is getting ditched

I think it looks like one of these stock car fins lol

Its actually stamped Range Rover and I think its probably been a boot protector at one time.

have almost repaired this one after the "recovery"

http://forum.suzukiclubuk.co.uk/vi ... ,recovery/

Need a couple of front springs fitted.

About to fit a set of 16" Vitara rims fitted with 265/75 x 16 Grizzly Claws

Had the whole weekend putting bits on this one

new front springs

30mm wheel spacers

265/75 x 16 Bronco Dirt Devils

410 transfer box with drum handbrake

5 paddle offroad clutch

new winch wire

Albright winch solenoid

Winch isolator switch

New winch wander lead and remote system.

and a nearly new 750 CCA battery I acquired out of the works van thats about to be scrapped

couple more small things to do then hopefully the big trial run next weekend at Drumclog

Pics were taken before the new springs were fitted so its a couple of inches higher now

Looking good! You always seem to drop on to bargin SJ's! I'm jealous

This one only cost me £300

Going to try and find a pair of 3.9 SJ413 diffs for it to go with the 410 box and see if that will make it low enough geared for these tyres.

I was thinking about a rock lobster but a bit pricy for my shallow pockets so hopefully the diffs and 410 box will do the job.

If not I'll look at the Vitara 5.1 diffs.

Then plan to weld both diffs and fit manual front hubs

and fit rear discs

Other than that and maybe twin hoop roll cage I think that'll do for this one.
