i think i have seen it on here before, http://cgi.ebay.com.au/1989-soft-top-suzuki-sierra-31s-rock-crawling-gears_W0QQitemZ330067395515QQihZ014QQcategoryZ102347QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem i woulnt mind it but its to far away, only a 2 seater (i think?) and has welded rear which i have decided isnt for me ...

im thinking of buying a sierra, it has a welded rear diff.

i do mostly road and beach work and go to lcmp a couple of times a year.
i dont think i really need a locker. how driveable is a welded rear on the road.

currently both my softop clips are broken, the ones on the top of the windsheild. does any one have some?

i can buy some on american ebay for like $15-$20, ive checked my local wreckers and they didnt have any u know of any good places?

cheers tim

those shocks look much longer than the ones i have on


mine are commo vn, i can get the ext and comp lengths if want

by testing the travel on each side with no shock you can get a rough idea of the extended and compressed lenghts. you will want a long rear shock so you can get the most travel . i have commodore shocks and they might just work i have 2inch kings springs and 30mm spacers and mine travels untill the ...

the 180 sx coils are mainly for the rear of vitaras, might work in sierra i dont know sierra coil diameters. vitaras are 100-110 mm

i would be interested in the bonent but unfortunaly it seems you are on the other side of the country

i have a 91 vit swb, i bought a 2inch set of kings springs for my vit, the back worked out really well with a 30mm spacer and some commodore shocks the back flexes and rides really well, the front was a bit more work. it is supposed to be 2:1 due to the ifs and wat not, so i only got a 15mm spacer ...

just before i bought mine the previous owner put on a bestop replace - a - top and it has been fine he said he payed about $500 for it.

i have a swb vitara. i got 6" splits behind the front seats and 4" splits in the factory space's in the front. there running off a sony mp3 head unit and pumping pretty well. im thinking off getting a sub and amp but money is a bit sparce at the moment and i really dont have much room for a sub ...

i live like 2min from there wat u need.

cheers tim

do daihatsu rims fit suzis, i know they are 5 stud, any one know sizes or tried them on suzis. i saw some for sale and wondered what the offset would be like, to much for a vitara im guessing.

cheers tim

NAH im pretty sure there not.
i do know that the same springs as kings are sold by a couple of differnt brands but not OME.

tim

thanks sikid when i tried to attach them my computers hell slow and it said the file was to big.

how much for the 30mm spacers and how much would postage be?

cheers tim

sorry about the pics boys im working on it now. have a look here http://community.webshots.com/user/always_offroad i still cant work out how to put em in the message, if any one wants do do it for me that would be sweet sikid i might just take up your offer, give me a few days to look around first ...

on the weekend i put my suspension lift in. this included a set of 2"(supposedly) king springs and 15mm rockcrawler coil spacers in the front and 30mm in the back. i also bought some new rear shocks. originally i got some mx62 cressida shocks but being the stooge i am i got the wagon shocks which ...

i checked the rate of the coils the new ones have 9 coils in total and the stock have 8 so the are not stock and oviously have a diffenent rate. when i do the rear ill compare the shocks and if i dont get the travel i want ill leave the stock ones in till i get the ones i want. i got some sick ...

today i put put the front springs and coil spacers in. i ran out ouf day light to do the rear but should be done by early in the morning. being the dill that i am i didnt measure the front before i put em in. but after the suposed 2" springs and 15mm spacers the front left is 820mm and the front ...

earlier today i bought some mx62 cressida shocks. they are gabriel guardian gas shocks and are approx 500mm extended and 330m. i thought these were the long ones im gonna put up some pics tommorow. i went up to the supa cheap counter and asked for some mx62 toyota cressida shocks and this is what he ...

i see then cressida ones it is.

i was just crusin ebay and there were some standard jeep yj shocks they looked pin to eye but i couldn't tell, anyone have any idea of thier specs

cheers tim

thanks guys,

it seems that gas are to hard, gabriel are to crap and afternrket are to expensive.

ive been crusing all the the online cataloges to find the right shock i hope to get some this weekend

tim

will doing a strut mount flip put less stress on the front end.
i thought with more travel it would put even more stress on the front end

And i saw some pics of a rear A arm spacer, do places sell them or you have to get one made up

cheers tim

ideas any one?

There was just a post about this topic on vit front struts. I have a 91 swb zook, pretty much standard beside 225/75/15 tyres and im just about to put some lift in. i have a set of 2' raised king springs and 15mm spacers for the front and 30mm for the back. I dont have enough cash to replace the ...
