Re: Transfer box handbrake info.

Standard transfer box system is fine, just needs adjusting occasionally. X-eng has better holding power “when” it works, I found it needs more setting up and adjusting than a stock brake. It needs many mods to make it work reliably and not eat pads. It also rattles and has long handbrake lever trave...

Re: SU Carbs

Would happily bu...

Re: Fuel Tank

Yes some tanks have a drain.

It’s really not needed though, realistically how often do you need to drain a tank? And if you do need to drain one it’s not hard to just syphon/pump the tank out.

Re: Finding new standard (OEM) leaf springs for SJ410

I’m pretty sure Old Man Emu also used to make stock height as well as +40mm, not sure if they still do the stock height ones but might be worth checking as well.

Re: Finding new standard (OEM) leaf springs for SJ410

If they are actually genuine Maruti springs quality will be fine. The hard part is ensuring that they are actually genuine maruti. Avoid LesJöfors springs, they used to go flat really quickly. This place should be able to help. They will ship to the UK. https://www.suzuki-diely.sk/sk/suzuki Might ev...

Re: Rear Brakes

It’s probably more work to swap out drum brake set ups than it is to convert to discs. The backing plates are different so you need to press off the rear locking collar and bearing (not an easy task without damaging the bearing) swap the backing plate and press them all back on again. All the intern...
