Re: sj413 samurai pickup
Hey again not been here in a while. A bunch has changed had a tin top for abit but I've rebuilt and have started again on my samurai.
Now running 33x13.50x15 mudzillas, 2" inch springs all round with standard shackles, box section will, rock lobster, welded rear diff, 1.6 8v injection, roll cage and currently in the middle of my front virtual lift.
Some quick pictures I'll dig out the photos from the cage build and get another post up soon.

Found the cage pictures. It's welded to body and chassis so i won't be able to get the body off but I'm okay with that
This was all done in January 2018.
At the same time as I was switching to 8v injection.
Well getting round to splicing the looms and making the led headlights work.

Who did the cage ?
It looks superb. The welding looks spectacular. Work of art.

Re: SJ416 Samurai Build
Got some good post today. New high steer set up. Hopefully get a start at it tomorrow.
Also finally made a decent battery mount to take a primera battery. Got a few of them about. And added a kill switch for the winch.

Got the steering fitted today was pretty straight forward took some photos while i was at it to.
I've noticed the steering bar is now pointing up the way.
But what a improvement in the handling theres no more death wobble hopefully getting the tracking done before clog on sunday.

Went to get the tracking done but the guy in the garage wasnt up to it cam out with the steering wheel street but both wheels toeing out. Just redid it myself with a measuring tape.
Also decided I better get the snorkle sorted for the weekend.
Made it from a boiler plume kit and some intercooler hoses and clamps.
