Hey all,
The motor in my vitara is getting a bit tired and beyond repair, so it's looking like i'm going to need another one.
Any ideas on price and where to get one, i'm in melbourne.

Thanks,
Wasy

If you have a SWB vitara, (which i think you do looking at your avatar) i think if you bodylift the car, you can fit a LWB vitara fuel tank under there replacing the current tank.

I've just fixed the same problem on my vitara.
With mine, i had water in the bearings, which destroyed them, but also the hub that the bearing case sits in had worn out. (most probably due to running 31's)

If that is also the problem, as well as worn bearings, i found it to be cheaper to go to a ...

Hey,

Looking through a repco catalogue i have, the model you have pictured is worth $775.

There is a small 2.5T one for $687, which is not on rollers and is moved by hand.

These are repco prices so i'm sure they can probably be found cheaper out there....

Cheers, Wasy.

Well yesterday i pulled out the engine.
Geez this task is easy, i am usually helping my mate with a disco, and it takes days, not hours.

Got the engine out, removed the sump and checked the big end bearings. they were a little worn, but otherwise ok. spent another half an hour checking over the ...

don't decide not to remove the engine so you can change the CV along with taking the diff out.
A CV is a minor job requiring max 20 mins for the drivers side, whereas removing the engine can be lengthy, (a couple of hours) and at least while the engine is out you can give it a full degrease and ...

i don't see the need to take the diff out. its no hassle to remove the engine and the cv is fairly straight forward.

Soory man.... can't agree with removing the diff for that.

Have fun :armsup:

Fair enough.

The thought was that it might of been easier to do it this way, but from the ...

Thanks for the help guys.

I know about the crank having to be ground, but am hoping that it hasn't got that bad that it needs to be done, as the noise was only low.

I was hoping to go for the removing diff method though, as i have to replace one of the front CV's, so i could do that and fix the ...

Hey,

On my 1.6 carby vitara, i have had my big end bearing let go, after a few too many revs through a bog hole.

The question i have is what is the easiest way to get to it to fix it.

The 2 ideas i have had so far are to:
1. Pull the front diff out and leave the engine in the car, and remove the ...
