thanks guys ive decided to a do a little background
so im from rotheham im a mechanic and ive been into offroading for around 10years
in the early days i had a patrol and a few shoguns
my first sj was a tin top 413 ,that was on the road
then i built a diesel sj buggy
have had a vitara or2
until i got the gv last year
its changed a bit since the pic its spec is
2" spring lift at the front with 2" shockdrop
5" spring lift at the back with extended shocks
5.1 diffs instead of the standard 4.825
steel front diff with manual hubs
1.5inch body lift with bumpers lifted to match
diff guard
extended breathers
lengthened panard rod
cree led light bar (just fitting it)
everthing that can be is made by myself to keep costs low :weld: :weld: :weld:


next up is to make rose jointed adjustable 4 link for the back and get a locker

i can see why you love the J20a now scottie, it just sounds so mean and the slightest touch of the throttle and it responds instantly, not had my GV long but i already love it :D

It's a great motor, just can't decide which Suzuki of mine the one I have is going in :lol: went really well in the GV2000 so in an SJ or LJ it's going to fly :guns:

Haha yes that would be one quick zuk! I think it would go really well in a LJ, don't thiñk anyone else would have put a J20a in a LJ before, I know there is the odd samurai in the US with them in but not many...
