Re: SJ410 - pug diesel conversion
I love those wire brush discs, but they are f**king dangerous!!!
Always seem to end up pulling 1-2" long bits of brush out of my hands/arms

Re: SJ410 - pug diesel conversion
haha some of them are lethal, ive found the knot ones better. this is just a cheapy from screwfix, doesnt seem too bad.
Re: SJ410 - pug diesel conversion
yeas, they are verry dangerous, especially if they are run without a guard on the grinder. I had one grab my shirt, and wind up in it, and then the motor just stalled luckily. and I quickly pulled the plug. expected to see a lot of blood and gore, but luckily I was fine, it did reck my shirt and singlet though! also skinned countless knuckles and fingers with them too
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
Re: SJ410 - pug diesel conversion
Getting a little closer to getting this finished ive recently started a new job at an engineering company and have took the sj to work to get it finished before xmas fingers crossed!, plans have changed on the engine, ive sourced a corsa 1.5td cheap and hopefully picking up a conversion kit up next week with a rhino ray/ muddyzook custom gearbox. ive got the 410 engine out and started to underseal the engine bay, cut down the roof rack the other day and started mounting some lights to it. Also dropped on another 410 possibly for parts or may rebuild it if i can get hold of a logbook for it.

Re: SJ410 - turbo diesel conversion
Got my hands on the conversion kit today, basically ive bought a muddyzook/ rhinoray gearbox and a fooked engine attached to it but have another good engine ready to bolt up, should hopefully have it in this weekend.
Re: SJ410 - turbo diesel conversion
Muddyzook never did a derv conversion gearbox? If it's a cut n shut it's probably rhino rays, I've never liked how that's done as you can't split the gearbox case if there's an issue.
