LWB

Yeah they're hard to find down here too. According to http://www.off-road.com/suzuki/features ... aintro.htm the LWB is 95 inches. Which is very good! Stockmans (utility version) are also hard to find.

LWB

The actual wheelbase is 93.5 inches or 2375mm. This is straight from the service manual.

Body length i'm not sure about, i'll have to see what i can find out. Approach angle is the same as the SWB as the front end is same on both models. Departure angle is worse because there overhang is longer.

I have seen pics of the LWBs in Europe, they even come from the factory with a turbo diesel over there. Yeeeaaahhhh baby!!!

They aren't really that hard to find in Australia. Not as common as shortys but they are around.

are you sure, the body hangs out about that ,plus the wheel base is extra? there seems to be about 10" in the wheel base and another 10" in the overhang? my guess is 20" for the entire body, but I'm asking, not telling, no swb here to measure...saying that, I bobbed mine, so my overhang is similar to a shorty. christover
