Rather than getting a steering guard I would just get some heavy duty steering links, they were only about £80 when my mate bought his but that was a few years back.

All those steering guards do is get bent and then you bend the steering links anyway! from my experience!

yeah thats exactly what im after but without the winch tray! as i dont want to put a winch on this toy, also i wont be getting a steering guard as nine times out of ten people just get stuck on them sitting on it so i think there more hassle then there worth :lol:

well things have changed on this ive taked off the old driving lights that look like saucepans on the bumper and sold the A bar too!, Also i said i wouldnt get a steering guard and well i got offered one cheap enough not to say no so ive put it on and if i dont like it i will just sell it again ;)

it has know been lifted 2inches all round , HD springs in the rear, MS springs in the front , with +2inch turrets, spreader plates etc aswell as hd rear trailing arms and 3 degrees caster corrected ones and all new bushes aswell ,also i put on a new HD steering damper next job is brake lines and sort out the exhaust! 8-)

Its a true fact I will not be building a discovery 1 ever again. they are crap to work on stupid manufacturing ideas etc. And I dont like them whisllst driving them off road. I felt like I was driving a boat around a multi story carpark.

So the suzuki sj will continue to live on :rockin:
