New member from Jamaica

Post by Reedom » Tue Jun 25, 2013 6:42 pm

Hi guys, new member here from Jamaica. I have a 1988 Suzuki Samurai Targa Top.

A question though, I have a 98 Sammy building. Its RHD and doesnt use spring blades/leaf spring suspension. It uses a trailing arm and shock set up. Where can I get urethane bushings for it the trailing arm and also a shifter?

Hi and welcome.

Cant be of much use on the coiled 98 as we never got the coiled version in the uk.

Are you after a shifter or a shifter bush?

Welcome to SCUK.

Welcome! :doublethumbs: Pictures of your other Sj would be great, I'd imagine they would be the same as Jimny or vitara trailing arms, so I would try Llama 4x4, vits4bits or Jimnybits (search them in google)

mk1joe. It is pretty fun off roading here. We have alot of country and mountains so it basically traversing that, oh and beach walks (were not 4WD or AWD cannot go) in order to go fishing. No Road, No problem.We dont do as much mud bugging as it seem like you guys do.

hail everyone
