Didn’t mean to be rude about the wheels, just feel they don’t fit the car. Needs steels or a date appropriate alloy, just my opinion Couldn't agree more Robbie. The wheels are wrong and the wheel spacers were shocking. They were easy to remove...must put a For Sale up for the spacers!!! Steel wheel...

If you find a front bumper I could be interested in what you have, although I would like the real thing. Never seen one with a rear bumper

I may have to buy a re-pro front bumper but the SJ one that is on at the moment is defo going...you interested in that or the bull bar dude?

That’s a good looking LJ, but can I say hate the wheels on it as you say needs steels. Are you going 8 spoke or originals? I know originals are hard to find.

The wheel spacers have gone Robbie - a marginal improvement. 8-spokes will probably go on while I find some original wheels

That little beauty must've cost you a pretty penny! LJ's aren't cheap... It's a damned fine example though, from the pics! I should have bought one years ago when they were a few hundred quid..a few thousand now but the whole old car scene is just mental right...look what SJs are going for now!!! M...

Mine has an SJ rear bumper. It's not soooo bad but is gunna go and I'm gunna fit the rear bumper section that takes the lights

It's quite a nice thing I've got....so far, first impressions are good

One more thing...the wheel spacers have gone and I'd like to find a set of steel wheels for this truck - anyone got any of these?

I think a lot of steel wheels got weighed in when scrap metal prices were high....

Cheers

Oh...I could just post the snaps the dude I bought it off sent to me...

So...after 30+ years of driving SJs, Vitaras and a couple of Samurais I have finally found an LJ80. It was in Ireland (Southern) but is on it's way to me. In with the deal I have; the stock engine and gearbox which is fitted in the vehicle....but I'm told it smokes!!! a 1.0l engine and gearbox a 1.3...

Ah man...I am desperately trying to find an early SJ but I would have bought that LJ if I'd seen it - gutted There's an A reg sj413 on ebay at the moment that lookis quite good condition or are you looking for an early sj410? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1983-Suzuki-sj413-convertible-4x4-barn-find-sp...
