Hi Kitika mate, I am Brisbane based, I have had 2 sets of these 6 stud hubs and drums, I sold a set on NBS last year for $100 and still have a set. The first set I actually got in WA off a wreck outside Halls Creek. I saw a couple of six stud suzuki's over there and at first thought they were hilix ...

Please don't get me wrong, I am not debating the benifits of moving the diff forward in fact my own Suzuki is a full RUF, but I have correctly positioned my shockies with the use of shock hoops, my steering box has been moved forward and for further balance I have moved my engine back. I am simply ...

Yeah Steve I forgot to menion that, a lot of people do space the bump stops down to prevent the diff from going up far enough for the steering arms to bind. This will stop the steering arm binding problem but in doing so you limit your upward wheel travel. A lot of people don't see this as a problem ...

grimbo I can't agree with your comment, "the whole point of RUF is to move the diff forward" sure there is a definate advantage to be gained by getting that extra length in the wheel base as alien points out. But this is not the whole point of RUF, it is only one aspect of the conversion. The main ...

Hi Jaffa, thanks for the pics, your engine mounts are 1 litre and you have made the 1600 fit by adding the plates, you will find that the engine is not really in the correct position but it shouldn't worry you if you are doing general 4x4ing, if you were punishing the vehicle you may have problems ...

Taz that is exactly what I mean, a spline for the gearbox with a machined flange welded to the end that bolts to the transfer, no uni joints. They are solid mounted together to form a one piece gearbox and transfer case.

Hi jaffa, firstly is your car really a maruti, not all LWB suzuki's are maruti's, did you get it with a 1 litre engine in it or a 1300, secondly did you actually fit the engine yourself or have someone do it. I agree with joeblow, all maruti's come with 1 litre engines and therefore have 1 litre ...

It can and has been done many times without moving the transfer, even in LJ's. In fact the first conversion kits supplied by Dellow and Zenith Engineering did not move the transfer back. An adapter flange is utilised and the tranfer is solid mounted to the gearbox, most early conversions were done ...
