Hello!!! my name is Fabian, i'm from San Juan, Argentina. Is a place with a lot of montains, and most of them are very hight, about 4000 meters or more!!! (that's a serious problem for truck). I have a "Maruti Gypsy - mg410", the equivalent of a Suzuki sj410 long body, but the differnce is that it's made in India. I have a good friend from england, (Near to saffron walden) and i go to visit him and your beautiful country once a year. We have a lot of problems buying some pieces in my country, so, like a lot of other thinks, i offen buy it there, and late bring it here. One of the things i would like to buy is a RockCrawler 4.16 or 6.5 Gears, a winch and maybe a lockright diff locker for my gypsy, i hope it's compatible, it should be... I'm going to be there the next month. Is there any pleace where i can buy those things? Thank you!!!

This is my Spoa Maruti, 235/75 -15:

Welcome to SCUK.

Rocklobsters tend to be made to order by rockwatt. If you want gears he can order gears in but there is a delivery time of approx 6 weeks. Then you could take gears home and fit yourself.

Also one on ebay http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewit ... 4907854459

Diff lock on ebay http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewit ... 7163223590

Also available from http://www.rsmfg.co.uk/page19.html

Www.jimnybits.co.uk do ARB lockers.

Winches are available all over the place depends on budget, size, brand?

All the items you want can be found on Ebay. I don't see any issues with you being in Argentina. So long as you pay for the items they could be sent to your friends house for when you got here.

:welcome: to :suzuki: clubUK

Nice maruti :thumbup:

Being in Argentina I would imagine it would be easiest to order your parts from North America?

Both of these companies do nearly all the parts you want :thumbup: however being an SJ410 based maruti you need to check what size the diffs are, I'm not sure but I have a feeling maruti use the larger sj413 and samurai size diffs so samurai lockers should fit, if they use the smaller sj410 size diffs then you might struggle finding lockers for it, lockrite used to make a locker for 410 size diffs but I'm not sure if they still do. If you want ill measure a 410 and a 413 diff so you can work out what you have.

As long as its a transfer box that has a 4wd light switch on (which it should be) then the crawler headsets will fit

Id have thought America would be the best bet as the exchange rate would be better and you would avoid UK taxes like vat, I don't know what the deal is with importing bits to Argentina, i know you can't import from america to Cuba for political reasons.

I like your mg410, the seats in the back look really comfy are they original, what year was it made?
