Small update.
Engine bolted in for the final time. New engine mounts and engine lowered slightly to avoid rubbing on the bonnent.
Front clip and body bolted down for final time.
Track bar nearly finished. Just have to weld on diff mounts.
Fuel system sorted and running. External electiric fuel pump is much better than the electric pump that used to be mounted in the sierra tank. The engine used to appear to starve for fuel,(maybe not enough pressure), now it just roars to life.
Still lots of little shyte to do.
Does anyone know what redline is for a Vitara 1.6 16v EFI? Does it have a rev limiter?

Yes they are rev limited. Not sure about the limit though, have never been lookin at the tach while puttin the boot in my guess is 5.5k - 6.5k
cool. i'm happy that its limited. i guess i'll just have to bounce the limiter to find it

the tube clip came off the old M&M zook. it was cheaper and easier to get i second hand than to bother with building my own. i was originally gonna run the old front guards with some cutting, but the tube front came up for sale.

Picked up my new brake lines today steel braided, with the length of the lines the braided will be heaps better, ,and only $75 each, custom length.
Finished making my track bar, with the help of a mate.
single link style. very happy with the way it works.
dumped the clutch at a few thousand rpm, no axle wrap just wheel spin really happy with the compact design, it should allow me to drop me fuel tank a bit lower.

yeah that was the idea, it was a fair bit of stuffing around to make it. But now that is in i'm really happy with it. hopefully it'll be strong enough.

nice work there mate, but as redzook said its a 2 link trac bar coz it has 2 mounting points on the diff 2 stop the rap.....
but yeah if it work then its all good.....
and also i dont think the spherical joint will flog out i had the same one on mine 4 like 18moths and its still good

yeah i'd probably call it a virtual two link, but don’t really know what its called. It has all benefits of a two link, but in a compact design that suited my centred diff really well. From side on if you were to draw a line from the bottom bracket back up to the hemi,(as if it was a two link) there is a fair size triangle created.
It works well in the driveway

Dont think it'll bend....ive been running mine for ages now with 37's on rock and had no worries.
im not bagging your truck, its looking good
my point is that heims are not suppose to be used in bending, they are designed for tension and compression loads. ive seen plenty of these fatigue and crack under bending loads.
luckily its just a track bar, coz if it snaps, your axle will stay where it is thanks to the leaf springs.
