He used to be in our club. It was a pretty cool Suzuki actually, he just never got the time to play with it enough

More pics

Truck seems ok. Not to much wrong with it actually. The only thing that i would complain about is the front end. It is way to soft!!! Oh well off to Mr King spring for some custom springs and the change the front shock hangers to behind the diff and change the shocks as well!

Is that using rangie front/rear/upper rear suspension arms?

Long live cab-chassis!!!!

Looks awesome!

Do you know how many inches of lift the coils have over it when the stock coils/leaves were in?

Post by **rok4b** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 7:23 pm

Yes as it said in my earlier posts. Not sure about how much lift it has over standard as I bought it like that. At the moment the less the better.

that rear pinion needs to come a bit to...

Post by **Klappers** » Tue Jan 24, 2006 11:54 am

Unfortunately, no i have not taken it out yet. But there is some things that must be addressed before that happens. The springs are WAY to soft for my lard ass and as such need to be changed. Also doing that probably also means that i will need to change shocks. Not that bigger deal i know but i need to change the mounting point of the front shocks to get more articulation.

if it was local it would have been mine

all the truckin co. wanted to much over the chrissy break and i also needed to borrow sum $$$ to purchase then was gonna part out the diffs and tyres and start from there.

Congrats on the buy d00d, i lurve it... hmm dual tcase... yum yum yum

Post by **Klappers** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 12:25 pm

Hehehe... funny stuff!!! Just did oil change and spark plugs, leads and dizzy cap change and finally the bastard this idles!!! You wouldnt believe how much of a challenge that was! Anyways just wondering if there is a special service tool or a special size key to loosen off the nuts for the diffs and transmission. Wanting to change the oil in those as well.. Just a question though, why would you get rid of the diffs?? WT diffs with ARB air lockers at both ends???? Seems crazy to me
