suzuki lowering shocker

[andyrew]

well , maybe this is a firston here... ive lowered my sj back down. she had 30 9.5 15 on and add a leafs that id put on temporarely to go play in the mud after i had ripped my fuel tank guard off and bent my number plate so aprrox 4 inches higher than norm.

i had it lifted still but on 195s for a while as the fuel economy is vastly improved from average 21mpg to about 29/30 now.

but as youd imagen it looked pony lift with small wheels and as i had a set of bogo height brand new springs next to my bed (as you do) the samis now back down to stock with a bit of dish and some 205 70 15 hankooks, they are a bit small tho. 215 75 15 would be better.

so no loger does my other half have to point her toes at the pavement and slide out of the anus





the ride is sooooooooo much better, shes my daily so needs must. ive broken my seat! with the hard springs so thats next on the list.

next up power steering and maybe and mini lpg conversion

should make for a very usable / comfy daily.

Nothing wrong with no lift! We love it low here! I can bet my sj is the probably the lowest sj on 33s in the country looks good!

[turbo-tom]

looks pretty good and very different i like it

[andyrew]

got my US spec lights and bits coming slowly over the next few month. free postage is awsome

so red bumper markers and orange sides, should look good.

still got my small muds and spacers so she will still go for a play with the others

indeed.

keep having thorts of a 410 roadster, but i have 3 projects and a daily.

the idea

rear wheel drive only
vit lump
410 springs up front on 410 axle
+3s on rear with a sammi axle
15 x10s on rear with 33
15x5.5 on front with 195s
rear roll hoop with harness points
B pillar bit removed
chop front sreen to 5 inches
half doors
early 410 metal dash

That looks pretty cool

thanks, the wheels are just in primer for now, they had rusted out chrome on them before. so i had them shot blasted.

i think they where a jimny option? 15x7 jj rims with 205 70 15. they will be going black ( poundland gloss!) with the fake bolt replaced with stainless socket cap bolts

[dazerede]

Haha u can't beet poundland for spray paint

[andyrew]

well it seems the 205 70 15 are just a wee bit too small for my liking, from some angles in looks cool.
but sideways on they kinda look like trolley wheels

so im now on the hunt for 215 15s just to fill the arches a bit more.

id forgoten how twitchy the lil sami is on wet mini roundabouts
