Hello!

Post by captainpirateboy » Sun Aug 21, 2011 11:55 pm

New to the site and new to SJs/Off roading.

Just bought my first one, will get some pics up later in the week when i pick it up, only have the advert pics atm.

First question, can you get solid roofs for them as this one is canvas and with winter not too far away could do with a hard lid. Also want to be able to have a secure cab.

My other car is a 240bhp MG ZR so this should be something diffrent for me :mrgreen:

Yup, that would be the one.

There's a few on eBay that cover the bed of the truck, but need the bit that covers the cab ideally....

Where in the country are you as my mate has one he will sell, only problem being you will need to make your own clips to hold it on as I think it has some missing.

Hi! Welcome to suzuki club uk!!!

I feel really bad now, I have a spare hard top front section, and keep it purely to use as a 2 man sled when it snows!!!

Cheers for the warm welcome peeps!

Picked up the SJ this evening, unfortunately it was dark by the time i got home so was unable to get any pics.

Certainly is a bit of a beast.

Needs some TLC tbh but i was expecting this for the price. Hoping to try and get it through an MOT as i'd rather not have to trailer it everywhere.

Would be very interested in the hardtop, however i think a previous one may have just been cut off the truck so not sure how easy a fit another would be. On top of this, looks like the rollcage will be getting in the way of a fully enclosed back. Would still like to have a secure/warm cab though so might have to look at getting something fabbed up :er:

Not a million miles away from you, Im just north of Portsmouth, Hampshire.
