KJA build

Post by Jack6835 » Wed Aug 14, 2013 9:04 pm

We're to start,

Bought my sj413 about a month ago it was in ok condition but needs a fair bit of work

As it stands at the moment it's got

.spoa
.31" tyres with weller style rims
.vitara 1.6 conversion (was done when I bought it )
.got a cherry bomb exhuast(will be changed for standard)
.bumpers removed

Apart from that its fairly standerd as far as I'm aware

My to do list is fairly big,I hope to get it done by Xmas

.Fix the brakes (spongey pedal,have to pump to make them work)
.change the clutch
.weld a few holes in the footwell
.fix water pump leak.
.find some seats that fit,anyone help on this(standerd ones are knackered)
.door straps
.put some new LEDs in the dials as there really dim
.new windscreen
.fix hand brake
.fix starter motor,any suggestions on a replacement one?
.change front axle(noisy diff bearings)
.fix fuel gauge,only reads quater of a tank
.make front n rear bumpers and sill protectors/rock sliders
.re-cover door cards and make headlining
.fit standerd exhuast,anyone know we're i can get one from
.replace front and rear springs as mine are praticly flat,and possibly fit higher rated ones to the back so it can carry a bit extra

.take it off-road and fix whatever falls off!

Will upload some pictures tomoro as I don't have any one my ipad
