well here i am

Post by minibreaker » Wed Oct 16, 2013 7:04 pm

hello peeps wolly put me onto this place as diffcock was starting to annoy me some what. i have a 1.3 sammi and its a van. i used to have a sammi a few years ago. running 31s and 3 inch body lift it looked good and drove really well. this one tho is gonna be slightly different as i have more funding now.
the plan so far
well gonna go spring over axle with 2 inch body lift running 33s and a full external cage fitted with bucket seats in the front with harnesses. i am not bothered at the minute about winches and stuff as all that can come later. ill post some pics as soon as i figure out how lol

now lets all persuade wolly to get another sj :smokin:

welcome!

we'll persuade wolly, it won't take long once he sees the pictures on here :D

sounds like you got the plan going on there, I hope it'll turn out as you hope, it's easier to think of something than actually do it sometimes. have a look around at some of the builds, and get some ideas. I don't think you'll need to lift the sammy that much for 33s, just cut the arches somewhat, you'll see in the builds what I mean exactly
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out

Welcome to SCUK.

Are you starting with a standard SJ? Or has it already been modded by previous owner?

its a completly standard van never been messed with lol. wolly will be helping me. and as for lifting i like the look of a massive lift so its more for that than to fit the tyres in. no rush on it just for now. gonna do everything before i mot it. but things change so who knows

Massive lift = High COG = Lying on side a lot

People seem to get carried away lifting some SJs. Its surprising what size tyres can fit on very little lift.

i think looking at it that the spring over will be enough for the look i am after and i think with 33s with spacers i should be ok for stability. i may just end up with 31s and a 2 inch body lift but who knows
