Hi Scottie, sorry for the late reply.

I'm in Worcestershire, not a million miles from you. If you do have a 410 back box I'd be very interested. Cheers, Michael.

An update on my SJ410: we've pretty much sorted the engine out now and were just at the point of setting up the carb when we realised that the back box has popped. Not something that can be welded, so my question is does anyone have one? (Will post separately in the right section of the Forum for th...

We've been over it with a fine toothed comb; it's been really well looked after and the bodywork is...

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Would this do the job:https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suzuki-Grand-Vitara-Mk2-98-05-1-6-Engine-G16B-Jimny-conversion-kit-ECU-kit-key/174606784597? As you say, I'd still need a gearbox and adaptor plate. Presumably the gearbox needs to be an SJ413 box or are there othe...

Hi All I have a newly acquired 1983 SJ410 VW in really nice order but with a very tired engine. You can see it here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suzuki-SJ410-4x4-1983-/363269186699?nma=true&si=nGh5U8IkOK3GvWVdcnFWLnTv87g%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 ...
